Bhaga approached Bala in a chariot rumbling like a cloud; / saying to that Daitya, “Halt, halt!”, he pierced him with a feathered arrow. / Taking up an arrow, the great Asura car-warrior Bala / quickly pierced Bhaga through the palm of the hand and roared. / Then, approaching him as if laughing in illusion, / he struck him on the chest with his foot and returned again to his own chariot. / Seeing that agility, valour, composure, and courage of his, / all the gods and Asuras praised him, crying, “Well done! Well done!”
