Meteors with flames and smoke, loosened from the welkin, shot down during the day; and the weapons of the Vasus, the Rudras, la Adityas, the Sadhyas, the Maruts and of all other classes of celestials began to fight among one another.
सधूमा न्यपतत्सार्चिर्दिवोल्का नभसश्च्युता। तथा वसूनां रुद्राणामादित्यानां च सर्वशः॥ साध्यानां मरुतां चैव ये चान्ये देवतागणाः। स्वं स्वं प्रहरणं तेषां परस्परमुपाद्रवत्॥
