7.16.p7
Attacked by the descending gods, that army of the Dānavas was churned, / like a lake filled with fish whose waters have diminished is churned by royal swans.
Then an exceedingly terrifying clamor arose / in the agitated army of the Dānavas occupied by the gods.
As the water of the ocean [is disturbed] by whales, as the sky by clouds, / as the body by phlegm and bile, as serpents by garuḍas,
so that host of Andhaka was made by the power of the dwellers of heaven / in an instant to have its armor and banners shattered and rendered helpless.
On one side by the gods accompanied by Indra, and on the other by the lords of the Gaṇas, / the Dānava army was struck down, like a flock of goats by hundreds of wolves.
