The Mount Sumeru glittering like gold, the caves of which are incessantly full of the Yakṣas, Rākṣasas and the Gandharvas, the mounts Hemagarbha, Hemasakha, Kailâśa, were all shaken by Hiraṇyakaśyapu. The lakes Vaikhînasa with golden lotuses, the Mânsarovara surrounded by swans, the mount Triśṛinga, the river Kumârı, the mount Mandarâchala, the mounts Uṣtravindu, Chandraprastha, Prajâpatı, Puskara, Devâbhra, Renuka, Krauñcha, the mount of the seven Ṛiṣis, the smoky mount, all these and other countries, rivers and oceans and all the realms were shaken. Kapila, Vyâghravîn, the son of Mahî, the sons of Sati residing in the skies, the dwellers in the lower regions, the Raudras, Ūrdhagas, Bhīmagas and other attendants of Śiva were also shaken by the demon. Afterwards Hiraṇyakaśyapu took the club and the trident and assumed a ferocious appearance.—83-91.
