Verse 7.5.13

विद्याधर उवाच ।
मृदूनि परितापीनि दृषद्दृढबलानि च ।
छेदे भेदे च दक्षाणि स्वशस्त्राणीन्द्रियाणि च ॥ १३ ॥

vidyādhara uvāca |
mṛdūni paritāpīni dṛṣaddṛḍhabalāni ca |
chede bhede ca dakṣāṇi svaśastrāṇīndriyāṇi ca || 13 ||

The vidyadhara said:—I see these organs of my body, which though so frail, are yet as hard and strong as any weapon of steel; they are capable of breaking and tearing every thing, and hurtful in their acts of injuring others.
