एवं शप्त्वा गजं शीघ्रं नष्टो वैश्वानरः पुनः । देवाश्चापि तथा पृष्ठे संलग्नास्तद्दिदृक्षया
evaṃ śaptvā gajaṃ śīghraṃ naṣṭo vaiśvānaraḥ punaḥ | devāścāpi tathā pṛṣṭhe saṃlagnāstaddidṛkṣayā
Ainsi, après avoir promptement maudit l’éléphant, Vaiśvānara (le Feu) disparut de nouveau ; et les dieux aussi le suivirent de tout près, désireux de voir ce qui allait advenir.

Type: kshetra
Scene: Agni fades into the forest air after cursing; devas hurry after the vanishing glow, their ornaments trailing light, while the elephant remains behind, stunned.
The cosmos is dynamic: consequences unfold swiftly, and even divine beings remain attentive to the unfolding of dharma and disorder.
