(Toddy tapper enters from the sides and offers a pot of liquor and a packet of pickle to Balarama)
O Unconquered One! Lord! Then Vivida, a minister of Narakasura was troubling people in cities and homes. When he went to the Raivataka forest, he saw Balarama enjoying in the company of women.
Seeing the well-built monkey shaking the branches of trees vigourously, the women laughed. Then, O Lord of Gods! He climbed down from the tree and took away the pot of liquor. When Balarama threw a stone at this strong well-built monkey, he managed to evade it. O Lord! That scoundrel monkey showed his ass to Balarama sitting in the middle of beautiful women.
Lord! Then he started making several vulgar signs and mocked Balarama. Balarama became enraged. Not only that, all of a sudden Vivida smashed the pot of liquor right in front of Balarama!
Then Balarama, deciding to kill the monkey, took his plough and pestle. O Lord! Pulling out a tree, Vivida struck Balarama's head! Balarama struck him effortlessly with his plough. Neglecting that he pulled out another tree.
Balarama smashed the tree, Vivida pulled out all the trees in the forest. When Balarama diverted all the stones thrown by him, Vivida struck him with his hand.
O Hari! Then Balarama also discarded his weapon. Balarama struck a terrible blow on the monkey/s head and made him a follower of Naraka (killed him) and saved this world from all his troubles.
