iti skandapurāṇe vipracittipātane caturuttaraśatatamodhyāyaḥ

For one who can slay an elephant in battle, and a lion, and a śarabha, / what reckoning would there be, O mighty Daitya, regarding this beast? / And out of fear of me, that boar, accompanied by all the gods, / challenges me, O lord of Daityas; therefore, victory is certainly mine. / Indeed, you yourself, O Daitya, [shall go] as my messenger to him […]; / go in haste to the mortal realm, O bull among Dānavas. / By truth I swear, O Dānava: I shall not return without having slain / the killer of my brother, who strikes terror into the Dānavas.
Sanatkumāra said:
Then, having given orders to his charioteer, he had his chariot made ready. / To console his wives, he entered his apartments again. / Performed auspicious rites by them there at that time, and having looked upon those sons of Diti all around, / the mighty one took up all the radiant gear suitable for battle, capable of warding off enemies. / Thus ends the one hundred and fourth chapter in the Skandapurāṇa, in the Fall of Vipracitti.
