This true counsel do you know, O seer-poet, the mighty singer of wrath: three-breasted he smites, four-breasted fierce, the godly slayers first slew.

He amongst those (who are your followers), who observes truth, who is considerate, who is commended by the wise, who is able to (inflict) harm, carefully weighs (the means whereby), fierce and well-armed, he slays (a foe) less efficiently accoutred, and (by which) the revilers of the gods, however mighty, may perish.

This might of theirs hath no one comprehended. True is the crushing word the sage hath uttered, The fearful four-edged bolt smites down the three-edged, and those who hate the Gods first fall and perish.
