Broad, yellow, sharpened, feathered with eagle plumage, / inexhaustible arrows of Andhaka shot fiercely from his bow. / Pierced by Andhaka in their faces, gums, bellies, and trunks, / elephants of immense rut shed their rutting-juice. / Others took refuge with the lord of gods, others with Indra the king of gods, / others with the god Nārāyaṇa, and other retinues with Nandin.
