Verse 3.36.18

क्षुब्धचक्रदलावर्तः शरसीकरमारुतः ।
प्रभ्रमद्धेतिमकरो व्योमैकार्णव आबभौ ॥ १८ ॥

kṣubdhacakradalāvartaḥ śarasīkaramārutaḥ |
prabhramaddhetimakaro vyomaikārṇava ābabhau || 18 ||

The air also seemed as a sea, with flying disks whirling as whirlpools (chakravartas), and the flight of reeds whistling like gusts of wind; while the range of running weapons seemed as sharks and dolphins moving about it.
