यं स्म युद्धे मन्यतेऽन्यैरजेयमेकलव्यं नाम निषादराजम् । वेगेनेव शैलमभिहत्य जम्भः शेते स कृष्णेन हतः परासुः॥५-४७-७१॥
He whom others in battle deemed unconquerable—Ekalavya, the Niṣāda king—lies like Jambha dashed against a mountain; Kṛṣṇa struck him down, and he is without life.

अयं सौभं योधयामास खस्थं विभीषणं मायया शाल्वराजम् । सौभद्वारि प्रत्यगृह्णाच्छतघ्नीं दोर्भ्यां क एनं विषहेत मर्त्यः॥५-४७-७३॥
This very one fought the airborne Saubha and the Śālva king, formidable through māyā. At Saubha’s gate he seized a śataghnī with his arms—what mortal could withstand him?

प्राग्ज्योतिषं नाम बभूव दुर्गं पुरं घोरमसुराणामसह्यम् । महाबलो नरकस्तत्र भौमो जहारादित्या मणिकुण्डले शुभे॥५-४७-७४॥
There was a fortified city named Prāgjyotiṣa, dreadful and unassailable even to the asuras. There the mighty Bhūma (Naraka) seized Aditi’s auspicious jeweled earrings.

न तं देवाः सह शक्रेण सेहिरे समागता आहरणाय भीताः । दृष्ट्वा च ते विक्रमं केशवस्य बलं तथैवास्त्रमवारणीयम्॥५-४७-७५॥
Even the gods, with Śakra (Indra), could not withstand him when they gathered—fearful—to recover the earrings. Then they beheld Keśava’s decisive prowess: his strength, and likewise his weapons, were irresistible.
