सनत्कुमार उवाच ॥ तस्येंगितज्ञश्च स दैत्यराजो गदां गृहीत्वा त्वरितस्ससैन्यः ॥ कृत्वाथ साऽग्रे गिलनामधेयं सुदारुणं देववरैरभेद्यम्॥१॥
Sanatkumāra said: The king of Daityas, skilled in interpreting what he hinted at, seized his mace and hastened along with his army to the entrance of the cavern. The terrible demon Gila who could not be overwhelmed even by the foremost among the gods, was placed ahead.

After reaching the cavern of the lord Śiva, the Daitya attacked with his weapons as refulgent as thunderbolt. The others showered weapons on Vīraka and yet others on Pārvatī, the daughter of the mountain.

Other fierce beings (bhūtas), along with the gods and their armies : including the foremost, Vishnu — as soon as they were summoned, arrived with their own forces, riding in chariots, on elephants, on horses, bulls, and even cows.
