Smara ie. Manmatha, the god of love. To him is ascribed the power of agitating the minds of his victims with his flower-arrows. The eyes of the Devi are here compared to Manmatha's arrows, her quarry being her Lord, Siva. The poet significantly uses the word 'Phala' with a pun on the word, as it means 'fruit', as well as 'an arrow-head'.
