When the tree was destroyed, Nandī then tore up the peak of Mandara / filled with deer, wild beasts, and serpents, and ran toward Andhaka in battle.
Nandī, whose home is in the forests on mountain peaks, / brought down that mountain peak onto his chariot, like the slayer of Ahi hurling a thunderbolt onto the Vindhya.
Struck forcefully by Nandī with that peak, / that chariot, along with its wheels, yoke-pole, and horses, turned to dust.
Then, seeing Andhaka's chariot crushed along with its wheels and axles, / the gods with the Gandharvas and the Pramathas with the Guhyakas roared.
Then Andhaka, roaring like a storm-cloud of dissolution, struck Nandī / with a trident, as a lord of elephants strikes a tree.
Struck with the trident, the favorite of the Trident-bearer, / Nandī, his limbs trembling in distress, shook like the moon reflected in water.
As Nandīśvara was reeling, severely afflicted by the blow, / a chorus of lion-roars arose repeatedly in the army of the Asuras.
Roused by that lion-roar of the enemies, / Nandī, the kinsman of the spirits, struck Andhaka with an axe.
Struck by the axe, the Dānava Andhaka shed blood, / as a sandalwood tree struck by an elephant's tusk sheds red sap.
