That mace resembling a blazing flame when hurled by Viṣṇu moved with unerring aim and dashed against his body.

Though hit by it, the great haughty Jalandhara did not move even slightly as though he was hit by a flower-garland.

Then the infuriated Jalandhara, invincible in war, terrifying to the Asuras hurled a trident, resembling fire, at Viṣṇu.
