He burned his demon foe to slay,

And rushed impetuous to the fray.

His weeping wives he thrust aside,

And forth, impelled by fury, hied;

While, by my love and duty led,

I followed where my brother sped.

Máyáví looked, and at the sight

Fled from his foes in wild affright.

The flying fiend we quickly viewed,

And with swift feet his steps pursued.
