युद्धकाण्डम्/सर्गः_६९6.69.p18274–6.69.p18278
युद्धकाण्डम्/सर्गः_६९6.69.p18274

Sanskrit · 6.69.p18274

निर्जघ्नुः सहसाऽऽप्लुत्य यातुधानान् प्लवङ्गमाः। शैलशृङ्गान्विताङ्गास्ते मुष्टिभिर्वान्तलोचनाः॥ ५१॥

English · Meaning

The monkeys suddenly leapt upon and struck down the demons. Their bodies were furnished with mountain peaks, and the transmitted phrase मुष्टिभिर्वान्तलोचनाः is difficult as written: literally it suggests “with fists, having vomited eyes” or “with fists, [causing] eyes to be vomited out.” Conditionally, the sense may be that the demons’ eyes were forced out by the monkeys’ fists; this interpretation is not presented as a correction of the transmitted wording.

Within a moment the earth became covered, sprinkled with blood. The ground was filled with scattered Rākṣasas, mountain-like in form, crushed down; then the earth was full of those possessed by the frenzy of battle.
