3. She was also known by the title of Visúchí or cholic pain, by which she was ever afflicted, and which had reduced her frame like that of the Vindhyá hill, which was cowered down (by the curse of Agastya).
4. Her eye-balls were as blazing as fires; and her stature reaching half way to the sky, was girt by a blue garment, like the shade of night wrapping the atmosphere.
5. A white mantle formed the covering of her head, like the fragment of a cloud; and the long erect hairs of her head, stood like a sable cloud on her crest.
6. Her eyes flashed as lightnings, and her sharp hooked nails glistened as sapphires; her legs were as long as tamála trees, and her loud laughter was as a burst of frost.
7. A string of dried bones decorated her body, like a wreath of flowers; and the relics of dead bodies, adorned every part of her body.
8. She frolicked in the company of Vetálas, with human skulls hanging down her ears as ear-rings; and stretched out her arms aloft, as if she was going to pluck the sun from his sphere.
9. Her huge body being in want of its necessary aliment, caused her culinary fire to blaze like the submarine flame, which the waters of the deep are unable to quench. (The latent heat in water).
10. Nothing could ever satiate the insatiable hunger, of this big bellied monster; nor satisfy her lickerish tongue, which was always stretched out like a flame of fire.
11. She thought in herself saying:—Oh! if I could but once go to the Jambudwípa—the land of Asia, I would devour all its men in one swoop, and feast on them continually, like the submarine fire upon the waters.
12. As the clouds cool the burning sands by their rain, so will I allay the burning fire of my hunger there. It is settled as the best plan to support my life, at this critical moment.
