> with hundreds of severed heads for stones, hands and animal-faces for serpents, / covered with moss of hair, with hundreds of bowstrings for threads, / with the joy of white garments \[for swans\], crowded with multitudes of diadems, / filled with kettle-drums for turtles, and choice ornaments for frogs, / teeming with fish of arrows, hard to approach with alligators of swords, / with great crocodilian monsters of chariot-wheels, stirred up by water-beasts of maces, / with sand of scattered necklaces, foaming with phlegm, / it was like a garland of red lotuses, a saffron wreath cast down by garland-wearers.
