Hearing such words of Indra the long-armed Lord Viṣṇu the destroyer of the enemies of the Devas the refuge of all looked full of all glory and becoming pleased said to Indra — All the Daityas will not be killed unless their predestined means of death occur The unconquerable Daitya Tārakāsura will be killed at the hands of a seven days' old baby and by none else Some demons deserve being killed by a woman Some by a virgin, but the wicked demon Jambha is destined to meet with death at your hands, you should, therefore, destroy him the terror of the world, by your own prowess, no one else can kill him Guarded by me, you go and kill Jambha the thorn of the universe"—10-14

Hearing those words, Indra directed the Devas to array His army Viṣṇu put the eleven Rudras, comprising all the power and asceticism of the three regions, ahead of Him At that time, the eleven terrible Rudras with their throats yellow, by wearing wreaths of serpents, holding skulls, beautified with the crescent moon on their forehead and with tufts of hair on their head, looking ferocious with their tridents and wearing lionskins, with their tawny matted hair, those eleven, named, Kapalî, Piṅgala, Bhîma, Birûpâkṣa, Bilohita, Ajeśa, Śasana, Śâstâ, Śambhu, Chanda and Dhruva—began to kill the demons who were attacking Viṣṇu and emboldened the Devas by roaring like thundering clouds Indra also made his appearance riding on his big Airavata elephant, having four tusks and rut flowing all round him, looking like the lofty snowclad Himâlaya with golden bells tinkling, on his sides brisk châmaras flowing, and asssuming any form at will At that instant, Indra looked like the rising Sun on the Udayâchala Mountain—15 23
