Verse 7.81.72

सह्या मह्यामिव खगा विन्ध्या विद्याधरा इव ।
वृक्षावर्ते भ्रमन्तोऽन्ता राजहंसा इवाम्बरे ॥ ७२ ॥

sahyā mahyāmiva khagā vindhyā vidyādharā iva |
vṛkṣāvarte bhramanto'ntā rājahaṃsā ivāmbare || 72 ||

The hills and rocks fled away, and the Vindhyas flew as aerials in the air; the woods rolled in the whirlpools, and the stars floated in the sea of heaven, as swans and geese in the lakes below.
