And I am not your enemy, in truth; I am always doing what is good for you. / Have no doubt, O king of daityas; I swear by truth on all accounts. / Nor is it unknown to you today, the oath that was made of old; / likewise, I am a drinker of nectar; no death exists for me. / I am Garuḍa's son, but leaving the gods, I have resorted to the asuras / out of affection for you alone, O daitya; do not harbor suspicion toward me! / This army is afflicted by the Moon and Fire; / protect it swiftly, O mighty-armed one; you should not grieve. (18–21)
