unpounded; when removing grass completely, some grass remained behind; when am Agastya, (name of a Vèdic sage,) drank the whole ocean, some small pool remained un-drunk; when grinding, some chaff remained un-ground, so it really happened with me. However, I cannot uselessly put up with the Sarvajna controversialist.
एकस्मिन्नजिते ह्यस्मिन् सर्वमप्यजितं भवेत् । एकदा हि सती लुप्त-शीला स्यादसती सदा ॥
14 Ekasminnajité hyasmin, sarva mapyajitam bhavét, Ekadā hi sati lupta-silā syādasatī sada. 14
१९ ॥
14 Because, if this one is not won over, every thing else becomes unconquered, because if a chaste woman becomes deprived of her chastity only once, she always becomes unchaste. चित्रं चैत्र त्रिजगति सहस्रशो निर्जिते मया वादैः । fanazzangufta dingeitset ferrat art || 2011
15 Citram caiva trijagati sahasraśo nirjité mayā vādash; Ksipracatasthälyāmiva kam-katuko'sau sthito vādi 15
15 It is really strange that in the three worlds, thousands have been won over by me by discussions; this controversialist has remained like a grain of corn resisting fire in a cooking dish of easily prepared food.

अस्मिन्नजिते सर्व जगज्जयोद्भूतमपि यशो नश्येत् । अल्पमपि शरीरस्थं शल्यं प्राणान् वियोजयति ॥ २१ ॥
16 Asminnajité sarvam jagajjayodbhūtamapi yaśo naśyét; Alpamapi sarirastham salyam prāṇān viyojayati 16.
16. If this one is not won over, the entire reputation acquired by my victory over controversialists all over the world, becomes completely destroyed. Because, even a small thorn existing in the body, deprives it of the means of supporting life. 3
