भगवन्किमवज्ञानाद्वृत्तिः प्रतिहता मम ।
कामकारवरं दत्त्वा पुनश्चलितवानसि ॥ ५.१०५.३ ॥

वृतश्चैष महानागः स्थापितः समयश्च मे ।
अनेन च मया देव भर्तव्यः प्रसवो महान् ॥ ५.१०५.५ ॥

त्यक्त्वा रूपं विवर्णस्तु सर्परूपधरोऽभवत् ।
गत्वा विष्णुसमीपं तु पादपीठं समाश्लिषत् ॥ ५.१०५.८ ॥
Hearing the words of Suparṇa, Sumukha and Durmukha then gave up their form, turned pale, and took on the form of serpents. Going to the presence of Viṣṇu, they embraced his footstool.
5.105.9
न मत्कृतं वैनतेय न मां क्रोद्धुं त्वमर्हसि ।
दत्ताभयः स सुमुखो विष्णुना प्रभविष्णुना ।
श्रत्वा पुरन्दरेणोक्तमुवाच विनतासुतः ॥ ५.१०५.९ ॥
This was not done by me, Vainateya; you ought not be angry with me. Sumukha has been granted safety by the mighty Viṣṇu. Hearing what Purandara said, the son of Vinatā replied.

एतच्चैवाहमर्हामि भूयश्च बलवृत्रहन् ।
त्रैलोक्यस्येश्वरो योऽहं परभृत्यत्वमागतः ॥ ५.१०५.१० ॥
This too I deserve again, O slayer of Vṛtra, O mighty one. I, who am the lord of the three worlds, have come to serve another.

त्रैलोक्यराजराज्यं हि त्वयि वासव शाश्वतम् ॥ ५.१०५.११ ॥
While you abide, O lord of gods, Viṣṇu is no cause for me. Indeed, O Vāsava, the kingship over the three worlds is eternal in you.

अहमत्युत्सहे लोकान्समन्ताद्वोढुमोजसा ॥ ५.१०५.१२ ॥

यत्तु ध्वजस्थानगतो यत्नात्परिचराम्यहम् ।
वहामि चैवानुजं ते तेन मामवमन्यसे ॥ ५.१०५.१५ ॥
Though I dwell at the banner's place and serve you with care, and even carry your younger brother, you hold me in contempt.
5.105.16

मया योऽहं विशिष्टः सन्वहामीमं सबान्धवं ॥ ५.१०५.१६ ॥

अवज्ञाय तु यत्तेऽहं भोजनाद्व्यपरोपितः ।
तेन मे गौरवं नष्टं त्वत्तश्चास्माच्च वासव ॥ ५.१०५.१७ ॥
Having disregarded me, you drove me from the meal, and by that my dignity was lost, through you and through this one, O Vāsava.

त्वमेषां किल सर्वेषां बलेन बलवत्तरः ॥ ५.१०५.१८ ॥

अक्षोभ्यं क्षोभयंस्तार्क्ष्यमुवाच रथचक्रभृत् ॥ ५.१०५.२० ॥
Having heard the bird's words, so terrible in their outcome, the wheel-bearer of the chariot, stirring even the unshakable one, spoke to Tārkṣya.
5.105.21
गरुत्मन्मन्यसेत्मानं बलवन्तं सुदुर्बलम् ।
अलमस्मत्समक्षं ते स्तोतुमात्मानमण्डज ॥ ५.१०५.२१ ॥
Garutmat, you think yourself strong, though you are very weak. Egg-born one, enough of praising yourself in our presence.

त्रैलोक्यमपि मे कृत्स्नमशक्तं देहधारणे ।
अहमेवात्मनात्मानं वहामि त्वां च धारये ॥ ५.१०५.२२ ॥

न त्वं वहसि मां दोर्भ्यां मोघं तव विकत्थनम् ।
इमं तावन्ममैकं त्वं बाहुं सव्येतरं वह।
यद्येनं धारयस्येकं सफलं ते विकत्थितम् ॥ ५.१०५.२३ ॥
You cannot carry me with your two arms; your boasting is in vain. First carry this one arm of mine, the left or the right. If you can hold even this one, then your boasting will have borne fruit.
5.105.24
इत्युक्त्वा भगवांस्तस्य स्कन्धे बाहुं समासजत् ।
आरोपितं समुद्वोढुं भारं तं नाशकद्बलात् ।
निपपात स भारार्तो विहलो नष्टचेतनः ॥ ५.१०५.२४ ॥
Having said this, the Lord laid his arm upon the shoulder. Unable to bear the weight placed upon him by force, he was overcome by the burden, bewildered and senseless, and fell down.
5.105.25
यावान्हि भारः कृत्स्नायाः पृथिव्याः पर्वतैः सह ।
एकस्या देहशाखायास्तावद्भारममन्यत ॥ ५.१०५.२५ ॥
As great as the weight of the whole earth together with its mountains, so great did he deem the weight of one branch of his body.
5.105.26
न त्वेनं पीडयामास बलेन बलवत्तरः ।
ततो हि जीवितं तस्य न व्यनीनशदच्युतः ॥ ५.१०५.२६ ॥
But the mightiest did not oppress him with his strength; therefore the infallible one did not destroy his life.

व्यात्तास्यः स्रस्तकायश्च विचेता विह्वलः खगः ।
मुमोच पत्राणि तदा गुरुभारप्रपीडितः ॥ ५.१०५.२७ ॥

That bird, son of Vinatā, bowing his head to Viṣṇu, bewildered, distressed and wretched, spoke some words.
5.105.29
भगवँल्लोकसारस्य सदृशेन वपुष्मता ।
भुजेन स्वैरमुक्तेन निष्पिष्टोऽस्मि महीतले ॥ ५.१०५.२९ ॥
O blessed lord, when your arm, equal to the essence of the worlds and radiant in form, was freely released, I was crushed upon the surface of the earth.
5.105.30
क्षन्तुमर्हसि मे देव विह्वलस्याल्पचेतसः ।
बलदाहविदग्धस्य पक्षिणो ध्वजवासिनः ॥ ५.१०५.३० ॥
O god, you should forgive me, the distressed and feeble-minded bird, scorched by the burning of strength, who dwells upon the banner.
5.105.31
न हि ज्ञातं बलं देव मया ते परम विभो ।
तेन मन्याम्यहं वीर्यमात्मनो न समं परैः ॥ ५.१०५.३१ ॥
O god, O mighty one, I did not know your supreme strength; therefore I think my valour is not equal to that of others.
5.105.32
ततश्चक्रे स भगवान्प्रसादं वै गरुत्मतः ।
मैवं भूय इति स्नेहात्तदा चैनमुवाच ह ॥ ५.१०५.३२ ॥
Then the blessed one showed grace to Garuda, and out of affection he said to him, "Do not speak thus again."
5.105.33
पादाङ्गुष्ठेन चिक्षेप सुमुखं गरुडोरसि ।
ततः प्रभृति राजेन्द्र सहसर्पेण वर्तते ॥ ५.१०५.३३ ॥
With the toe of his foot he hurled Sumukha onto Garuda's chest; from that time on, O lord of kings, he remains together with the serpent.
5.105.34
एवं विष्णुबलाक्रान्तो गर्वनाशमुपागतः ।
गरुडो बलवान्राजन्वैनतेयो महायशाः ॥ ५.१०५.३४ ॥
Thus overpowered by Vishnu's might, Garuda came to the ruin of his pride, O king — the strong, far-famed son of Vinatā, Garuda.
5.105.35
तथा त्वमपि गान्धारे यावत्पाण्डुसुतान्रणे ।
नासादयसि तान्वीरांस्तावज्जीवसि पुत्रक ॥ ५.१०५.३५ ॥
So too, son of Gāndhārī, you live only so long as you have not met those heroes, the sons of Pāṇḍu, in battle, my son.
5.105.36
भीमः प्रहरतां श्रेष्ठो वायुपुत्रो महाबलः ।
धनञ्जयश्चेन्द्रसुतो न हन्यातां तु कं रणे ॥ ५.१०५.३६ ॥
Bhīma, best of strikers, the mighty son of Vāyu, and Dhanañjaya, son of Indra — may they not slay anyone in battle.
5.105.37
विष्णुर्वायुश्च शक्रश्च धर्मस्तौ चाश्विनावुभौ ।
एते देवास्त्वया केन हेतुना वीक्षितुं क्षमाः ॥ ५.१०५.३७ ॥
Viṣṇu, Vāyu and Śakra, Dharma, and both Aśvins — by what cause are these gods able to be seen by you?
5.105.38
तदलं ते विरोधेन शमं गच्छ नृपात्मज ।
वासुदेवेन तीर्थेन कुलं रक्षितुमर्हसि ॥ ५.१०५.३८ ॥
Therefore, prince, let your enmity be enough; go to peace. You ought to protect your family by means of Vāsudeva.
5.105.39
प्रत्यक्षदर्शी सर्वस्य नारदोऽयं महातपाः ।
माहात्म्यस्य तदा विष्णोः सोऽयं चक्रगदाधरः ॥ ५.१०५.३९ ॥
This great ascetic Nārada is a direct witness of all. At that time he was the witness of Viṣṇu's greatness, he who bears the discus and the mace.
5.105.40
दुर्योधनस्तु तच्छ्रुत्वा निश्वसन्भृकुटीमुखः ।
राधेयमभिसंप्रेक्ष्य जहास स्वनवत्तदा ॥ ५.१०५.४० ॥
But Duryodhana, having heard that, sighing with a scowling face, looking at Karṇa the son of Rādhā, then laughed loudly.
5.105.41
कदर्थीकृत्य तद्वाक्यमृषेः कण्वस्य दुर्मतिः ।
ऊरुं गजकराकारं ताडयन्निदमब्रवीत् ॥ ५.१०५.४१ ॥
Treating that speech of the sage Kaṇva with contempt, the evil-minded one, slapping his thigh shaped like an elephant's trunk, spoke these words.
5.105.42
यथैवेश्वरसृष्टोऽस्मि यद्भावि या च मे गतिः ।
तथा महर्षे वर्तामि किं प्रलापः करिष्यति ॥ ५.१०५.४२ ॥
Just as I am created by the Lord, and as is destined to be and as is my course, so, O great sage, I conduct myself; what will this babbling do?
5.105.43
ततः कण्वोऽब्रवीत्क्रुद्धो दुर्योधनमपण्डितम् ।
यस्मादूकं ताडयसि ऊरौ मृत्युर्भविष्यति ॥ ५.१०५.४३ ॥
Then Kaṇva, angered, said to the unwise Duryodhana: "Because you strike your thigh, your thigh will be your death."
