Then, having pierced that mighty Andhaka, that trident / brought the huge-bodied lord of the Dānavas near to Śaṅkara. // 7
The drops of blood that flowed from him as he was pierced by the trident, / having fallen, became men who also fought, unbearable [in battle]. // 8
Possessing forms equal to his, and prowess equal to his, / wielding various weapons and strikes, they too fought against the lords of the gaṇas. // 9
[…] with raised hands, / some struck down the very gaṇas as they fled, those [demons] of mighty strength. // 10
None among the lords of the gaṇas stood firm as they fought; / out of fear of the lords of the Dānavas, all fled in battle. // 11
