Daitya itu, pejuang yang menakjubkan dengan tumbukan penumbuk yang keras, lalu menyerang Viṣṇu juga—melontarkan anak panah tak terbilang, menyala seperti lidah api, tanpa henti menghentam.
Narrator (deduced: Lomaharṣaṇa/Sūta)
Scene: A powerful daitya—expert in varied warfare and heavy fist-strikes—turns his fury upon Viṣṇu, launching innumerable arrows that blaze like tongues of fire, each strike unyielding.
