devārirditijo vīro nṛsiṃhaṃ samupādravat
samutpatya tatastīkṣṇair mṛgendreṇa mahānakhaiḥ
tadoṃkārasahāyena vidārya nihato yudhi //

The demon, shining, moving and roaring like the clouds the enemy of the Devas, rushed at Viṣṇu when Narasiṁha supported by “Om,” jumped and tore the demon with His pointed nails. At the time of the destruction of the demon, the Earth, the Time, the Moon, the sky, the stars, the Sun, the planets, the directions, the mountains, the rivers, the oceans were all delighted.—92-94.
