Sanskrit Original
ततो योगबलं कृत्वा सर्वयोगेश्वरेश्वरः। तं यज्ञं स महातेजा भीमैरनुचरैस्तदा।॥ सहसा घातयामास देवदेवः पिनाकधूक्। केचिन्नादानमुञ्चन्त केचिद्धासांश्च चक्रिरे॥ रुधिरेणापरे राजंस्तत्राग्नि समवाकिरन्। केचिद् यूपान् समुत्पाट्य बभ्रमुर्विकृताननाः॥ आस्यैरन्ये चाग्रसन्त तथैव परिचारकान्।
Summoning all his Yoga powers, that Lord of all lords of Yoga, that god of gods, that holder of Pinaka, possessed of great energy, quickly proceeded to the place accompanied by all his dreadful followers and destroyed that Sacrifice. Of these followers of his, some yelled, and some laughed terribly, and some, O king, extinguished the fires with blood; and some, having dreadful faces, pulling up the sacrificial stakes, began to whirl them. Others began to devour those that were celebrating the Sacrifices.
