नानात्वं हलशूर्पादिस्रग्धरत्वं च तच्छृणु ।
सा हि क्रिया भगवती परिस्पन्दैकरूपिणी ॥ १७ ॥

nānātvaṃ halaśūrpādisragdharatvaṃ ca tacchṛṇu |
sā hi kriyā bhagavatī parispandaikarūpiṇī || 17 ||

Now know the reason of attributing the Goddess with many weapons and instruments, to be no more, than of representing her, as the patron of all arts and their employments.
