(xi) Everybody was terrified because the fight of Indra with Vṛtra prolonged without any termination. At last Vṛtra gaped and taking this opportunity, Indra sent his weapon the thunderbolt into the mouth of Vṛtra. Thus Vṛtra met with death. (M.B. Vana Parva, Chapter 101, Stanza 15; Udyoga Parva, Chapter 10, Stanza 30; Śānti Parva, Chapter 232, Stanza 9; Śānti Parva, Chapter 283, Stanza 59).
