c5.s3.100

A patient invaded by a demon who, roaming by night, devours men and feeds on raw meat, enacts the rôle of this monster (rākṣasa). He never sleeps, refuses food and drink, is fond of swords and knives, of blood and raw meat, and likes garlands of red flowers. His attitude is threatening and reviling.
