तत्रापि तादृशो जज्ञे नैगमेय इति श्रुतः । ततो विनद्य स्कंदाद्याश्चत्वारस्तं तदाभ्ययुः
tatrāpi tādṛśo jajñe naigameya iti śrutaḥ | tato vinadya skaṃdādyāścatvārastaṃ tadābhyayuḥ
Doon din ay may isinilang na katulad niya, na sa salinlahi’y kilala bilang Naigameya. Pagkaraan, sa malakas na sigaw, si Skanda at ang tatlo pang pinuno ay sabay-sabay na sumugod sa kanya.
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the sages
Scene: From Skanda’s chest-strike arises Naigameya, similar in splendor; then Skanda with three other leaders rush forward together, roaring—depict a fourfold charge with banners and coordinated movement.
