Scorched by the fire of the arrows, serpents lying in the earth sprang up hissing, wishing to spew forth their dread venom [heat]. And the creatures of the waters, being scorched, O Bharata, found no peace, their very pools growing scorching hot. The quarters, the sky, the intermediate directions, and the earth -- showers of arrows, high and low, rained down with the speed of Garuda and of the wind.

The fire of the weapon reaches even the serpents underground and the creatures of the waters: neither the depths nor the waters offer shelter. It is telling that water, which normally quenches fire, itself grows scorching -- the elements are turned inside out. The verse teaches that unrestrained destruction leaves refuge nowhere; when evil oversteps its measure, it penetrates even where peace was thought to reign -- so the only true refuge lies not in the elements, but beyond them.
