759 / He covered Viṭpati with numerous sharp arrows resembling thunderbolts, / just as a cloud [covers] a mountain with torrents of showers.
Though being covered by the flood of Kārtasvana's arrows like the ocean by masses of clouds, / Viṭpati did not feel any distress at that time.
Drawing his bow back to his ear with force, the mighty one then / split the Daitya chief's arrows into two and into three pieces each.
