Verse 5.30.28

चित्रार्पितोपमदुराकृतयो निरीहा दीनाशया हि महताम्बुरुहोपमानाः ।
शोकोपतप्तमनसोऽसुरनायकास्ते दग्धद्रुमा इव निरस्तविकारमासन् ॥ २८ ॥

citrārpitopamadurākṛtayo nirīhā dīnāśayā hi mahatāmburuhopamānāḥ |
śokopataptamanaso'suranāyakāste dagdhadrumā iva nirastavikāramāsan || 28 ||

The Asuras and their leaders, now continued to mourn with their disconsolate minds and disfigured bodies, like lotuses beaten down by the frost. They remained without any effort or attempt as the figures in a painting; and without any hope of resuscitation, like a withered tree or an arbour stricken by lightning.
