And (there) in the residence of that lord of the Rākşasas, he beheld various bands of Rākṣasis, as well as Rākşasas of gigantic frames, upraising various kinds of weapons; and steeds of exceeding fleetness, red, and white, and black; and first-rate elephants, possessed of eninent grace, capable of crushing hostile elephants, and well trained in arts relative to their species-like Airāvata himself in conflict. And there in that mansion he saw (all these elephants), destroyers of hostile hosts—like to pouring clouds, or hills, sending up fountains, rumbling like to clouds, and invincible in battle by foes.
राक्षसांश्च महाकायान् नानाप्रहरणोद्यतान्। ताश्वेतान् सितांश्चापि हरिश्चापि महाजवान्॥ कुलीनान् रूपसम्पन्नान् गजान् परगजारुजान्। शिक्षितान् गजशिक्षायामैरावतसमान् युधि ॥ निहन्तृन् परसैन्यानां गृहे तस्मिन् ददर्श सः। क्षरतश्च यथा मेघान् स्रवतश्च यथा गिरीन्॥ मेघस्तनितनिर्घोषान् दुर्धर्षान् समरे परैः।
