Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 52
देवैः स्कंदानुगैश्चैव कृतं शस्त्रैः पराङ्मुखम् । अथो क्रुष्टं तदा हृष्टैः सर्वैर्देवैर्मुदायुतैः
devaiḥ skaṃdānugaiścaiva kṛtaṃ śastraiḥ parāṅmukham | atho kruṣṭaṃ tadā hṛṣṭaiḥ sarvairdevairmudāyutaiḥ
Oleh para dewa dan para pengikut Skanda, mereka dipukul mundur dengan senjata hingga berundur. Lalu semua dewa, bersorak gembira penuh sukacita, melaungkan pekik kemenangan.
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa context)
Scene: Gods and Skanda’s followers surge forward; the demon ranks turn their backs in retreat under a hail of divine weapons; the devas lift arms and shout in triumph, faces bright with harṣa.
