Thereat the reverend sage, Narada, said; Hearken. I shall tell (you); and (after hearing me out) do you what is fit. o king of the Pitrs, here come the night-ranger named ten-necked, for bringing you under his sway you who are incapable of being conquered.
अब्रवीत्तु तदा वाक्यं नारदो भगवानृषिः। श्रूयतामभिधास्यामि विधानं च विधीयताम्॥ एष नाम्नो दशग्रीवा पितृराज निशाचरः। उपयाति वशं नेतुं विक्रभैस्त्वां सुदुर्जयम्॥
