शिव उवाच ।। व्यक्तं वचस्ते तदतीव चोग्रं प्रोक्तं हि तत्त्वं त्वरितं प्रयाहि ।। कुरुष्व युद्धं हि मया प्रसह्य यदि प्रशक्तोसि बलेन हि त्वम् ।।५१।।

Śiva said: Manifestly your words are fierce. Hence hasten. Fight with me if you have the might.

यः स्यादशक्तो भुवि तस्य कोर्थो दारैर्धनैर्वा सुमनोहरैश्च ।। आयांतु दैत्याश्च बलेन मत्ता विचार्यमेवं तु कृतं मयै तत् ।। ५२ ।।

Of what avail are the wives and riches, be they ever so beautiful, to a feeble man in the world? Let the haughty Daityas proud of their strength come. I have already thought of this and acted accordingly.

How can a feeble man maintain even his physical body? Let them do whatever they are ordained to do. I shall also do whatever I have to do. There is no doubt in this.
