> Yama, Varuṇa, the lord of wealth, and Vāsava, / the Bhagas, the Vasus, the sun, the moon, and the wind gods, / with delighted eyes and lotus faces, furious in crushing the host of enemies, held them back.  
> With mighty elephants roaming like rain clouds and winds rushing like galloping horses, / turbid with lightning strikes of arrows, the stormy gloom at the end of battle did not cease.  
> With eyes resembling lotus petals, faces shining like lotuses, the sun, and the moon, / the excellent faces of the sons of Danu made the earth shine forth as though covered with lotuses.  
> With the lords of the gaṇas and Dānavas crushed, smeared with the sprinkling of blood, fat, and marrow, / the battle was exceedingly terrible, dreadful, and watched by flocks of Garuḍas and Piśācas.  
> Thus ends the one hundred and forty-first chapter in the Skandapurāṇa, in the battle of the gaṇas.
