Leaving our city of stone, let us all take refuge in the pillar of the ocean / and remain there, O king; do not make war with him again!
Do not disparage him entirely as a beast, thinking, 'He is just a beast'; / previously Narasiṃha too was a beast, enlarged by that [same power]!
[…] / As long as you remain alive, O Daitya, bringing happiness to the Dānavas, / so long all the gods will be alive, there is no doubt.
