19. Thus also from the juice of the Jambu as big as the elephants mostly containing very fine seeds that break into pieces by their falling from a great height, the river called Jambu is formed and it falls down from the tops of Meru Mandara to a depth of ten thousand yojanas; and then flowing towards the south, moistens that portion of Ilavrita.
