dvandva-yuddham su-tumulam
ubhayor vijigisatoh
ayudhasma-drumair dorbhih
kravyarthe syenayor iva
Translation:
The two fought furiously in single combat, each determined to win. Contending against each other with various weapons and then with stones, tree trunks and finally their bare arms, they struggled like two hawks battling over a piece of flesh.

asit tad asta-vimsaham
itaretara-mustibhih
vajra-nispesa-parusair

The fight went on without rest for twenty-eight days, the two opponents striking each other with their fists, which fell like the cracking blows of lightning.

Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti points out that the fight continued day and night without intermission.
