Verse 4.26.10

विलेसू रक्तमांसौघपूर्णैकार्णवतीरगाः ।
कल्पतालवदुत्ताला वेतालास्तालतालिताः ॥ १० ॥

vilesū raktamāṃsaughapūrṇaikārṇavatīragāḥ |
kalpatālavaduttālā vetālāstālatālitāḥ || 10 ||

The ghosts of Vetalas as big as the talas or palmtrees, were beating the tala or time of their giddy dance, with the tali or clapping of their palms, over the heaps of carnage, floating on floods of blood flowing as a sanguinary sea, on the surface of earth.
