'Even the weak, when desperate, seeking life, / are difficult to conquer, there is no doubt, on account of being not to be killed and by their power (?) […] / […] now […] / […] thus spoke Uśanas in assembly (?) […] / That which they call the kingdom—these are the vital breaths of the great-souled; / he who would seize their kingdom takes their lives. / Today of them […] by the gods. / Let us fill the places of the gods, O lords of the Dānavas!' / Sanatkumāra said: / Then they, with Hiraṇyākṣa, entered Amarāvatī; / they took the jewels, O Vyāsa, and proclaimed their victory. / Those Asuras made a guard there, and through trustworthy informants, / they consoled the citizens as well as the subjects. / […] likewise with an offering of hospitality, and with excellent gifts, / and with blessings they bowed to Hiraṇyākṣa, the best of Asuras.
