and Sūryavarcasa,
Śaila and Asiputra,
Viśvāmitra and Yaśodharā,

Āḍavaka and Sumanas,
Śūcīkarṇa and Darīmukha,
Pañcālagaṇḍa and Sumukha,
All with their sentinels, troops, and mounts,

The gods, nāgas, and gandharvas,
Yakṣas, rākṣasas, and asuras,
The unmādas that return every third day,
Fevers that recur every fourth day,

And all the wicked yakṣas and rākṣasas,
Harmful to the world,
Present throughout the four directions.

Bound by the five fetters,
They stood with palms joined
And addressed the Lord of the World:

“Homage to you, heroic being!
Homage to you, supreme being!
We pay homage to you with palms joined!
Homage to you, king of Dharma!

“Running before them
Are bhūta yakṣas with large bodies,
Terrible ones with four arms,
With many feet, or one foot,
With four feet, or two feet,
With feet above and face below,

“With many bodies and one head,
With one body and four heads,
With many eyes and half a body,
With one eye and twelve stomachs,

“With the heads of ass, camel, and elephant,
With arms above and head hanging,
With weapons for teeth, arms, and feet,

“Rākṣasas with copper hair and teeth,
Copper eyes and arms,
Copper hammers for feet,
Copper noses and mouths,
With hands and feet ablaze,

“Ones that dwell inside the bodies of humans,
Hunchbacked, one eyed, and with boils,
With disfigured eyes and yawning mouths,
With bodies of sea monsters and tigers,
Monstrous, with gaping mouths,
Dangling lips, and curled fangs,
Wicked faces, wrinkled with wrath,

“With swollen bellies and vase-shaped ears,
With hanging ears, or no ears,
With long arms and long ears,
Long noses and long hands,

“With wizened bodies, long bodies,
And long hair, well adorned,
With thin feet and necks,
