English Scholarly Translation
If you belong to Vaisravana, or to Yama, or to Varuņa, and had entered into this city of ours disguising (your proper shape), or if you had been despatched by Vişnu burning for victory, (tell us this truly). Your prowess is certainly not hat of a monkey, your form alone is that of a monkey.
