तं भीतमिव चालक्ष्य दैत्यवीराश्च कोटिशः । नदंतोऽतिमहासेनं नानाशस्त्रैरवाकिरन्
taṃ bhītamiva cālakṣya daityavīrāśca koṭiśaḥ | nadaṃto'timahāsenaṃ nānāśastrairavākiran
उसे मानो भयभीत देखकर, करोड़ों दैत्य-वीर गरजते हुए उस महाविशाल सेना पर नाना प्रकार के शस्त्रों की वर्षा करने लगे।

None; the focus is the escalation of the battle.
None.
