Translations:Krishna/42/en
Kaliya seems to get the upper hand at first, gripping Krishna in his coils. But Krishna is only humoring him. Freeing himself from Kaliya’s coils, he begins circling the demon until the serpent’s head begin to droop with exhaustion. Seeing his chance, Krishna jumps onto the heads of the serpent and begins to dance. By rhythmically stamping his feet Krishna tramples his enemy into submission.
