ਸ੍ਵੈਯਾ ॥

SWAYYA,

Seeing the powerful Chandika coming towards him, the demon-king Sumbh became very furious.,

He wanted to kill her in and instant, therefore he fitted the arrow in the bow and pulled itt.,

Seeing the face of Kali, misapprehension was created in his mind, the face of Kali seemed to him as the face of Yama.,

Still he shot all his arrows and thundered like the coulds of doomsday.179.,

Entering the clouds-like army of the enemies, Chandi caughts hold of his bows and arrows in her hand.,

She killed the black mountains like demons, just as the sun-rays destroy the darkness.,

The army ran away out of fear, which hath been imagined by the poet like this:,

As though seeing the mouth of Bhim filled with blood, Kaurvas have run away from the battlefield.180.,
