Shortly after the Devas and the demons beheld in that vast ocean a terrible form of blue colour, lıke Bhrınga Anjana and mountaın, shining lıke golden clouds, full of precious gems and roaring lıke clouds, the most deadly poison—Kâlakûta—strong lıke fire. It is throwing off awful breath, and enveloping all the Lokas by its body, its haırs blazing lıke fire. Its body was decked with golden gems, ıt was dressed in yellow robes, a crown on the head and adorned with various flowers. It began to make dreadful noise in the ocean. Its fumes pervaded all round and caused an awful consternation among those present there. Under its deadly influence, many became petrified, most of them began to vomıt froth. They all were awfully terrified and most of them were rendered senseless.—14-17
