Pārvatī complained:: “O Śambhu, this is your disciple Bhārgava who was treated on a par with your sons. O lord, it was from you that he acquired Varman (i.e. Kavaca—coat of Mail or esoteric Protective Mantra) of great splendour and capable of conquering the three worlds. He defeated Kārttavīryārjuna, the powerful king, in battle. After achieving his own object, he has now given you the requisite fees viz. he has chopped off your own son’s tusk with his axe and let it fall. Undoubtedly you will be satisfied with this state of affairs.
