अपरिज्ञातमेनं ते धर्मराजं त्रयोऽसुराः ।
न प्रणेमुर्विनाशाय सामान्यमिव किङ्करम् ॥ ९ ॥

aparijñātamenaṃ te dharmarājaṃ trayo'surāḥ |
na praṇemurvināśāya sāmānyamiva kiṅkaram || 9 ||

The three Asuras, being unware of his rank and dignity, (by seeing him unattended with his ensigns), failed to make their obeisance to the lord of hell, by taking him to their peril as one of his servants.
