Verse 51

⁵¹It was this Bhagavan, king, who spread out again the fame of the god Rudra, struck down long ago by Maya, who works maya without end. ⁵²In what deed of the god who rules the world did Maya strike him down, and how was his fame built up again by this Krsna? Let it be told. ⁵³The demons were beaten in the fight by the gods, whom he had made strong, and they went for refuge to Maya, the highest teacher of those who work maya. ⁵⁴That mighty one made three cities, of gold, of silver and of iron, whose coming and going could hardly be marked and whose fittings were past guessing at. ⁵⁵With them, king, those generals of the demons, remembering the old hate and not to be seen, set about destroying the three worlds and their lords.

⁵⁶Then those worlds with their lords came to the Lord: Mighty one, god, save us, who are yours, for we are being destroyed by the dwellers in the three cities.
