tejiṣthayā tapani rakṣasastapa ye tvā nide dadhire dṛṣṭavīryam | āvistat kṛṣva yadasat ta ukthyaṃ bṛhaspate vi parirāpo ardaya

Burn up the demons with thy fiercest flaming brand, those who have scorned thee in thy manifested might. Show forth that power that shall deserve the hymn of praise: destroy the evil speakers, O Bṛhaspati.
