Of terrible teeth and dreadful countenance, hideous for ugliness, and dark and tawny, with hair dishevelled, and dreadful eyes, O Bharata, with a garland of skulls round her neck, and loO king like Incantation incarnate, O foremost of Bharatas, bathed in blood, and clad in rags and barks of trees, O you of righteous soul, she came out of Vritra's body. Of such dreadful form and countenance, O king, she sought the holder of the thunderbolt.
करालदशना भीमा विकृता कृष्णपिङ्गला॥ प्रकीर्णमूर्धजा चैव घोरनेत्रा च भारता कपालमालिनी चैव कृत्येव भरतर्षभ॥ रुधिरार्द्रा च धर्मज्ञ चीरवल्कलवासिनी। साभिनिष्क्रम्य राजेन्द्र तादृगूपा भयावहा॥ वज्रिणं मृगमायास तदा भरतसत्तम।
