- " I will bestow another thing— That which shall have the power of repulsion—
- It will open the Power to none. Hear!
- There walks one,
- Walks peacefully.
- In a white garment he walks.
- Swordless he walks.
- All that has been done against thee will turn against them. All that they wished against you, they will themselves receive. Good and evil.
- Who desired evil—will receive it. Who desired good—he may accept it. All will receive. Go. Do not hesitate. I will make an end to the trial.
- Alm! Alm! Algarfelmukor!”
- What passed?
- Gayatri passed on--
- In white and calmly.
- Without arrow nor sword
- Without hatred nor threat.
- " I will bestow another thing— That which shall have the power of repulsion—
- What passed?
- The enemies shot their arrows against Gayatri, poisoned arrows.
- The arrows turned and struck those who sent them.
- Others threw spears at Gayatri and fell, transfixed.
- Poison they spilt for him and died themselves terrified.
- What passed?
- Hosts of enemies died by their own hand.
- With hatred their spirit overflowed.
- Their hearts swelled with revenge.
- What passed?
- What passed?
- They destroyed and burned.
- They poisoned rivers and lakes.
- They sped a shower of flames.
- They shrieked their curses.
- They burned and drowned.
- They turned black, convulsed.
- They gashed and strangled— Themselves.
- What passed?
- They forgot the good.
- They lost the good meeting.
- The good eye darkened.
- The word of caress they deadened.
- What passed?
- Thus it passed!
- The foolhardy perished.
- By the strength of enemies, Gayatri went through the kingdom of the old lands."
- Thus it passed!
