English Meaning
And sounds of kettle-drums were heard in the sky proceeding from the celestials. And blossoms were showered by dancing Apsarās and high-souled Gandharvas. And this was wonderful (to behold.) And on that Raksasa of fell deeds having been slain, the dust was laid, the water became transparent, the sky looked bright, and the deities and Dänavas were filled with rejoicings. And on that dread of all creatures having been slain, the gods, Gandharvas and Dänavas, assembled together in joy, said, "Now let the Brahmanas who have their sins removed, with their anxiety gone off, range about.”
