There is a mighty mountain where the Sindhu falls into the sea, Somagiri by name; having an hundred summits and tall trees. In its plateaus there are certain birds (called) Sinhas. These lift up to their nests whales and elephants.
सिन्धुसागरयोश्चैव संगमे तत्र पर्वतः। महान् सोमगिरि म शतशृङ्गो महाद्रुमः॥ तत्र प्रस्थेषु रम्येषु सिंहा पक्षगमाः स्थिताः। तिमिमत्स्यगजांश्चैव नीडान्यारोपयन्ति ते॥
