English Meaning
His bow cut off, his steeds together with the charioteer slain, and himself deprived of his car, he (Dūşana) took a parigha resembling a mountain peak, able to me one's down stand on end plated with gold, capable of afflicting celestial hosts, studded with sharp iron sankus, and graced with the fal of foes;-of the touch of a thunder-bolt, able to pierce the persons of enemies*. The text may also mean able to rend the cities of foes.
