असुराः कालखञ्जाश्च तथा विष्णुपदोद्भवाः नैरृता यातुधानाश्च ब्रह्मवेदोद्भवाश्च ये

English Translation

The Asuras, known as Kalakhanjas who have their origin in the feet of Vishnu and the Rakshasas, known as Yatudhanas who have their origin in the feet of Brahma, gifted with teeth and of fearful impetus and endued with strength equal to the force of the wind and with the heroism of illusion, live here, O Matali.
