Verse 44

³⁷Marking their wonderful greatness, king, and a mind more than human, the brahmin took counsel with his wife and asked for his boy, who had died in the great sea at Prabhasa. ³⁸So be it, they said; and the two great chariot fighters, whose force has no end, mounted a chariot, reached Prabhasa, went up to the shore and sat a moment. The sea knew them and brought them an offering. ³⁹Bhagavan said to it: Give up at once the teacher's son, the boy you swallowed here with your great wave. ⁴⁰I did not take him, god. There is a great Daitya, Pancajana, Krsna, a demon who moves under the water wearing the shape of a conch. ⁴¹He is there, and surely the boy was carried off by him. Hearing that, the Lord went swiftly into the water and killed him, and did not see the child inside him.

⁴²Taking the conch that had grown out of that body, he came back to the chariot; and from there to the city named Samyamani, which is dear to Yama. ⁴³Janardana went there with the bearer of the plough and blew the conch. Yama, who holds all creatures in check, heard the roar of that conch, ⁴⁴and made them a great worship, swollen with devotion, and bowed down and said to Krsna, in whom the hearts of all beings are lodged: Visnu, you two are men in play. What are we to do for you?
