यत:-छिद्रे स्वल्पेऽपि पोतः किं पायोधौ न निमज्जति ।।

Ekasminnisțaké kristé durgah saryo'pi pătyaté 17. 17 Because-Does not a ship sink itself under water, even with a small hole in it? A fortress is completely pulled down by the removal of one brick. 17.

mfafango 70-Vādi-vijaya-Laxmi-sarana Who has the shelter of the Goddess of Victory and Prosperity, for defeating a controversialist.
Difengisa Vādi-mada-ganjana, Who removes the pride of a controversialist,
praat Vādi-mukha-bhanjana, Who breaks the mouth of a controversialist.
anfrafas Vādi-gaja-simha-Who is like a lion to the elephant in the form a controversialist.
