तेन संनादशब्देन लोकानां क्षोभ आगमत् | संत्रस्ताश्न भृशं लोके देवा: शक्रपुरोगमा:,उस भीषण गर्जनासे समस्त लोकोंमें हलचल मच गयी। स्वर्गलोकमें इन्द्र आदि देवता भी अत्यन्त भयभीत हो उठे
tena saṃnādaśabdena lokānāṃ kṣobha āgamat | saṃtrastāś ca bhṛśaṃ loke devāḥ śakrapurogamāḥ ||
Wika ni Bhishma: “Dahil sa dumadagundong na ugong na iyon, sumiklab ang matinding pagyanig sa lahat ng mga daigdig. Maging ang mga diyos—na pinangungunahan ni Śakra (Indra)—ay sinakmal ng matinding pangamba.”
