Sanskrit Text

तत्र देवा निजघ्नुर्यान्दानवान्युधि संगतान् तान्पुनर्जीवयामास काव्यो विद्याबलाश्रयात् ततस्ते पुनरुत्थाय योधयां चक्रिरे सुरान्

English Translation

From the desire of securing victory, the celestials appointed the Rishi who was the son of Angirasa (Brihaspati) as their priest to conduct their sacrifices; and their opponents appointed Ushanas (Shukra) as their priest for the same purpose. There was much boastful rivalry between these two Brahmanas. All those Danavas that were killed in battle by the Devas were revived by that sage (Shukra) with the power of his knowledge; and they, thus being made alive, fought again with the celestial.
