त्रिशीर्षाणं त्रिककुदं क्रिमिं सारङ्गम् अर्जुनम् । शृणाम्य् अस्य पृष्टीर् अपि वृश्चामि यच् छिरः ॥९॥
triśīrṣāṇaṃ trikakudaṃ krimiṃ sāraṅgam arjunam | śṛṇāmy asya pṛṣṭīr api vṛścāmi yac chiraḥ ||9||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
The three-headed, the three-humped (-kakúd), the variegated, the whitish worm—I crush the ribs of it; I hew at what is its head.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
