And the battle-array of the gods was broken, O son of Śakti! / Then Death (Mṛtyu), Time (Kāla), and the Finisher (Kṛtānta)—those three, / faint with fury, bound Andhaka with many nooses. / But tearing the nooses asunder, that lord of the Daityas, being exceedingly powerful, / mighty as he was, bound Kṛtānta with the noose of his own arms. / Bound by the arm-noose, Kṛtānta, faint with fury, / lifted up Andhaka, and having shaken him, that strong one carried him off by force. / Seeing his son being carried away, Hiraṇyākṣa / struck Kṛtānta very fiercely and firmly with sharp arrows. / That mighty one pierced all his limbs and joints / with sharpened shafts; transfixed by them, he came to a halt.
