Considering you as their protector the Daityas lived under your sway! Through your power, the Earth used to yield crops without waiting for tillage. To-day, however, I behold you overtaken by this dire calamity! Do you or do you not grieve for this.
त्वन्मुखाश्चैव दैतेय व्यतिष्ठंस्त्व शासने। अकृष्टपच्या च मही तवैश्वर्ये बभूव ह॥
