ततस्तु लीलया देवी मुक्ता तीक्ष्णान्महाशरान् । तान्सर्वांस्ताडयामास सर्वमर्मसु तत्क्षणात्
tatastu līlayā devī muktā tīkṣṇānmahāśarān | tānsarvāṃstāḍayāmāsa sarvamarmasu tatkṣaṇāt
ତା’ପରେ ଦେବୀ ଲୀଳା ଛଳରେ ତୀକ୍ଷ୍ଣ ମହାଶର ନିକ୍ଷେପ କଲେ ଏବଂ ତତକ୍ଷଣାତ୍ ସେମାନଙ୍କ ସମସ୍ତଙ୍କ ମର୍ମସ୍ଥଳରେ ଆଘାତ କଲେ।

Type: kshetra
Scene: The Goddess, serene as if playing, releases a volley of gleaming arrows; in the same instant, the attackers clutch their vital points and collapse—light radiates from her bow-arm.
