Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 23
एवं ते लीयमानाश्च निहताः कालने मिना । दृश्यंते पतिता देवाः शस्त्रभिन्नंगसंधयः
evaṃ te līyamānāśca nihatāḥ kālane minā | dṛśyaṃte patitā devāḥ śastrabhinnaṃgasaṃdhayaḥ
এইদৰে গা-গা লগাই লীয়মান হৈ থাকোঁতেই তেওঁলোক কালনেমিৰ হাতে নিহতা হ’ল। শস্ত্ৰে বিদীৰ্ণ অঙ্গ-সন্ধিযুক্ত পতিত দেবসকলক দেখা গ’ল।

Scene: After the crushing press, Kālanemi’s weapons finish the rout; devas lie fallen across the field, bodies and joints split, banners drooping, the storm-dark sky hanging heavy above.
