TRANSLATION

When he saw Indra’s carrier elephant thus fatigued and injured
and when he saw Indra morose because his carrier had been
harmed in that way, the great soul Vrtrasura, following religious
principles, refrained from again striking Indra with the club. Tak-
ing this opportunity, Indra touched the elephant with his nectar-
producing hand, thus relieving the animal’s pain and curing its
injuries. Then the elephant and Indra both stood silently.
