Hearing the words of Råhu, the King of the deities, wearing a golden garland, having his understanding bewildered, proceeded, on the back of his elephant-chief Airavata, huge like the summit of the Kailäsa hill, with temporal juice always trickling, having four tasks, roaring, and adorned with golden bells, towards Hanumān and the sun with Rāhu before him.
स राहोर्वचनं श्रुत्वा वासवः संभ्रमान्वितः। उत्पपातासनं हित्वा उद्वहन्काञ्चनीं जम्॥ ततः कैलासकूटाभं चतुर्दन्तं मदस्रवम्। शृङ्गारधारिणं प्रांशुं स्वर्णघण्टाट्टहासिनम्॥ इन्द्रः करीन्द्रमारुह्य राहुं कृत्वा पुरःसरम्। प्रायाद्यवाभवत्सूर्यः सहानेन हनूमता॥
