c5.s7.482.2

Indra poured down showers of rain, that were at first dried up in the sky by the heat of the fire (I, 226). When more rain was poured down, Arjuna dispelled it with a shower of his weapons. Takṣaka was not present, having gone to Kurukṣetra. But his son Aṣvasena was there; his mother, a she-snake, attempted to swallow him, but had her head cut off by Arjuna; Indra, raising a violent wind, for a moment deprived Arjuna of his consciousness, during which time Aṣvasena effected his escape, being cursed by Kṛṣṇa, Arjuna, and Agni ("never shalt thon be famous"). Indra assailed Arjuna with clouds, which were dispersed by the Vāyavya weapon, and with a shower of stones, and with a peak from the Mandara, but in vain. Garuṭmat (Garuḍa) and other birds, and Nāgas, who also assailed Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna, were vanquished; and As., G., Y., Rā., and Nāgas were defeated by Arjuna, as were the Dai. and Dā. by Kṛṣṇa with his discus. They were also attacked by Yama with his death-dealing mace, Kubera with his spiked club, Varuṇa with his noose and beautiful missile, Skanda with his long lance, the Aḉvins with resplendent plants, Dhātṛ with his bow, Jaya with a thick club, Tvaṣṭṛ with a huge mountain, Sūrya with a bright ḉakti, Mṛtyu with a battle-axe, Aryaman with a bludgeon furnished with sharp spikes, Mitra with a discus sharp as a razor, Pūṣan, Bhaga, Savitṛ, R., V., M., V.-D., and S. (I, 227). With his discus Kṛṣṇa slaughtered Pḉ., N., Rā., Dā., As., etc. The gods retired from the scene.
