viṣṇuḥ - Lord Viṣṇu; gatyā - with the faculty of locomotion; eva - indeed; caraṇau - His two feet; na - not; udatiṣṭhat - did arise; tadā - even then; virāṭ - the virāṭ-puruṣa; nāḍīḥ - His blood vessels; nadyaḥ - the rivers or river-gods; lohitena - with the blood, with the power of circulation; na - not; udatiṣṭhat - did stir; tadā - even then; virāṭ - the virāṭ-puruṣa.

Lord Viṣṇu entered His feet with the faculty of locomotion, but the virāṭ-puruṣa refused to stand up even then. The rivers entered His blood vessels with the blood and the power of circulation, but still the Cosmic Being could not be made to stir.
