देहरन्ध्रविशच्छ्वासवातभांकारभीषणाम् ।

deharandhraviśacchvāsavātabhāṃkārabhīṣaṇām |
musalolūkhalālātahalaśūrpakaśekharām || 15 ||

The air she breathed in the lungs, snored as the horrible snorting of the nostrils of horses; while the tip of her nose was as big as a mallet, and its sides as flat as a pair of bellows or winnowing fans.
