Both had the desire to gain the upper hand. Both fought on foot (padātin), had wonderful forms and features and were equally courageous. With massive heaps of fatal missiles they hit each other. They had various ways of attack. They roared. They exhibited their all exploits. The onlookers, the gods, the Gandharvas and the Kinnaras were much surprised. They did not speak anything there. [...]”.

Remaining concealed in the immediate neighbourhood, they should see where the birds settle after their flight. [...]”.

He has no desire for bed, food and drink, or kind words; by night he stands in the darkness, not to be controlled by a driver; coming upon (an army of) elephants, horses, and infantry (padāti), he will not in the least relax his intense rage ; (in this condition) the noble elephant has reached (the fifth stage of must called) ‘furious’”.
