On hearing the detailed news mentioned by his Gaṇas, Śiva replied following the worldly conventions.

शंकर उवाच ।। श्रूयतां च गणास्सर्वे युद्धं योग्यं भवेन्नहि ।। यूयं चात्रास्मदीया वै स च गौरीगणस्तथा ।।५७।।

Śiva said: O Gaṇas, hear you all. A battle may not be a proper course. You are all my own. He is Pārvatī’s Gaṇa.

विनयः क्रियते चेद्वै वश्यश्शंभुः स्त्रिया सदा ।। इति ख्यातिर्भवेल्लोके गर्हिता मे गणा धुवम् ।। ५८ ।।

But if we are going to be humble, there is likely to be a rumour: “Śiva is subservient to his wife.” O Gaṇas, this is certainly derogatory to me.

कृते चैवात्र कर्तव्यमिति नीतिर्गरीयसी ।। एकाकी स गणो बालः किं करिष्यति विक्रमम् ।। ५९ ।।

The policy of meeting an action with another (Tit for tat) is a weighty one. That single-handed Gaṇa is a mere boy. What valour can be expected of him?

भवंतश्च गणा लोके युद्धे चाति विशारदाः ।। मदीयाश्च कथं युद्धं हित्वा यास्यथ लाघवम् ।। 2.4.14.६० ।।

O Gaṇas, you are all experts in warfare and reputed to be so in the world. You are my own men. How can you forsake war and demean yourselves?
