Krsna, who gives shelter to the good, saw what he was doing, and as he was carrying the cowherds off he took hold of him, as a lion takes a wolf by its strength. Taking on his own form, which was like a king among mountains, the strong one wanted to get himself free, but he could not: the grip had sickened him. The Unfallen held him with both arms, threw him down on the ground, and while the gods in the sky looked on, killed him as an animal is killed. He broke open the cover of the cave, brought the cowherds out of their trouble, and, praised by the gods and by the cowherds, went into his own Gokula.
