2.8
Still other ghosts had heads like tiger heads with twelve eyes, noses like elephant trunks with thirteen trunks, carrying mountains on their left shoulders and bearing fire on their right shoulders, holding sharp swords in their hands and treading on lions beneath their feet, roaring as they arrived. Still other ghosts had bodies like clouds, lightning fires rising like the tops of clumping clouds, beside which were hundreds of thousands of myriads of dragons whose bodies could not be seen, but only their spitting venom; in the ten directions, all manner of evil things gathered like clouds. The spirit Hārītī brought her children, each holding a rock wall ten leagues square, towering and terrifying, as they raced to arrive. Still other ghosts curled their backs and tucked their tails, sniffing the ground with their noses, fire issuing from their noses; the flames transformed above, giving birth to ghosts who carried their faces as they ran.
