TRANSLATION
Flying in the sky, Vrtrasura’s trident resembled a brilliant
meteor. Although the blazing weapon was difficult to look upon,
King Indra, unafraid, cut it to pieces with his thunderbolt.
Simultaneously, he cut off one of Vrtrasura’s arms, which was as
thick as the body of Vasuki, the King of the serpents.
