"With great sorrow, touching her with my head (to honour her), I place this Durga, the dweller of the fort and destroyer of bad luck, into this pit, till the god Skanda turns their (Mlecchas) glory (Sun) to dust. When ill fate meets the Yavanas, she might re-appear, or manifest herself again amidst uproar. Until that time I am a fool like a drunkard. (However) let not fear enter you; the gods will quickly return (with victory) along with you."
