Chapter 220
संहर्षाद् धारयन् क्रोधं धनन््वी सख्रग्वी रथे स्थित: । समरे नाशयेच्छत्रूनमोघो नाम पावक:
saṁharṣād dhārayan krodhaṁ dhanvī sakhragvī rathe sthitaḥ | samare nāśayec chatrūn amogho nāma pāvakaḥ ||
Маркандейя сказал: «Взволнованный ликованием, лучник — увенчанный гирляндой и стоящий на колеснице — удержал свой гнев. В самой гуще битвы огонь по имени Амогха уничтожал бы врагов без промаха».

Mārkaṇḍeya describes a bow-bearing warrior on a chariot, garlanded and battle-ready, who restrains his wrath; simultaneously, an unfailing fiery power named Amogha is said to annihilate foes in the battle.
