English Meaning
And then struck with maces and clubs and swords and darts and tomaras, the Ten-necked one dived into (that deep) of a host. And rendered inert and sore assailed, Daśānana was deprived of his movements with volleys of weapons resembling torrents of rain. And albeit drenched with blood streaming dowli in hundreds of torrents, he like a mountain flooded with a downpour, being wounded with the weapons of the Yakşa, does not betray any smart.
