स तानचिंत्य दैत्येंद्रो देवबाणक्षतान्हृदि । बाणैर्व्योम दिशः पृथ्वीं पूरयामास दानवः
sa tānaciṃtya daityeṃdro devabāṇakṣatānhṛdi | bāṇairvyoma diśaḥ pṛthvīṃ pūrayāmāsa dānavaḥ

Scene: Tāraka, wounded yet fearless, draws and releases countless arrows; the sky darkens with shafts like a storm, filling all directions and raining upon earth; devas brace behind shields amid a tempest of missiles.
