24.1

dikcakraṃ calitaṃ bhayāj, jalanidhir jāto bhṛśaṃ vyākulaḥ,
pātāle cakito bhujaṃgamapatiḥ, pṛthvīdharāḥ kampitāḥ;
bhrāntā sā pṛthivī, mahāviṣadharāḥ kṣvelaṃ vamanty utkaṭam,
vṛttaṃ sarvam anekadhā janapater evaṃ camūnirgame. || 1 ||

1. The circle of the heaven was confused with alarm, and the ocean became greatly perturbed; in the lower world the serpent-king trembled, and the earth-supporting mountains quaked; the earth was terrified, and the great serpents spewed venom beyond measure; thus the whole universe was variously stirred at the advance of the king's host.
