ऋषिस्य च कालगतस्य तत्र भूतानां संक्षोभो महा अभूषि ।
तन्तस्य राज्यं सधनं सराष्ट्रं एकाय रात्रीय करेन्सु भस्मं ॥ ६ ॥
ṛṣisya ca kālagatasya tatra bhūtānāṃ saṃkṣobho mahā abhūṣi |
tantasya rājyaṃ sadhanaṃ sarāṣṭraṃ ekāya rātrīya karensu bhasmaṃ || 6 ||
When the seer was dead, there was a great commotion among the demons, and in a single night they reduced to ashes that king’s realm, his wealth and his might. (6)
