वि ज्योतिषा बृहता भात्य् अग्निर् आविर् विश्वानि कृणुते महित्वा । प्रादेवीर् मायाः सहते दुरेवाः शिशीते शृङ्गे रक्षोभ्यो विनिक्षे ॥२४॥

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

With great light Agni shineth out; he maketh all things manifest by his greatness; he forceth away the ill-conditioned ungodly wiles; he sharpeneth his two horns to gore the demons.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
