1.34.76

[8] tad evaṃ gīr-vāṇā api yad bṛṃhita-vāṇād bhayam ayamānās tata eva kila śaśvad asvapnān nāmnāpy asvapnā jātāḥ | so'yaṃ kuvalayāpīḍaḥ karī dāna-vāri-varīyān api dāna-vāri-kṛta-dānam āptavān iti te punar lekhā vismayena lekhā ivāsan | tatra ca sati kaṃsaṃ prati sahasā na kaścana bhiyā śaśaṃsa |

Thus, even the gods—fearing the roar of [Kuvalayāpīḍa's] trumpeting, and for that very reason truly sleepless (asvapna), just as their name signifies—saw that this elephant, Kuvalayāpīḍa, though superior with his flow of rut-fluid (dāna-vāri), had met his end through their water of liberality (dāna-vāri), and became like painted figures (lekhā) in astonishment. And since this occurred, no one, out of fear, quickly told Kaṃsa.
