apare dānavendrāstu yattā nānāstrapāṇayaḥ  
ājaghnuḥ samare kruddhā viṣṇumakliṣṭakāriṇam //

> Besides them various other Dânavas also armed with various kinds of weapons came fully determined and with violent rage and began to fight with Hari Who never gets tired in working Nimi used his club, \[^1\] his mace, Śambhu his sharp trident, Grasana his spear, Jambha his Śakti, and the other Dânavas shot sharpened arrows at Viṣṇu All those missiles penetrated Viṣṇu just as the words of a preceptor penetrate into the ears of a dutiful disciple.—6-9.
