dṛṣṭvānyāṁś ca mahotpātān atat-tattva-vidaḥ prajāḥ brahma-putrān ṛte bhītā menire viśva-samplavam
Translation
Marking these and many other omens of evil times, everyone but the four sage—sons of Brahmā, who were aware of the fall of Jaya and Vijaya and of their birth as Diti's sons, was seized with fear. They did not know the secrets of these portents and thought that the dissolution of the universe was at hand.
