శ్రీస్థలదేవీఆరతిక్యమ్ (యత్కర్మ-ధర్మ-నిలయం)

Sixteen verses in vasantatilaka that carry the whole of the Chandi narrative in compressed form, one episode to a verse: Vishnu overcome by her noose of delusion and laid down in sleep; Madhu and Kaitabha, born of his ear, whom even he could not easily kill, dissolved by her maya; the buffalo shape split in play; Dhumralochana burnt to ash by her hum, which the poet calls an oblation made in the fire of her own anger; Chanda and Munda shattered; Shiva himself sent as her envoy; the countless Raktabijas dried in the air; and Shumbha and Nishumbha struck down and then led by her to heaven. It closes as an arati should, offering the act itself back to her, asking pardon for the faults of a deluded worshipper, and naming what it has recited a Chandi-charita.
