Verse 7.119.25

दृष्टं श्मशानं तदनन्तभीमकरङ्ककंकालघनामगन्धि ।
माद्यच्छिवावायसकङ्कगृध्रपिशाचवेतालविरावरौद्रम् ॥ २५ ॥

dṛṣṭaṃ śmaśānaṃ tadanantabhīmakaraṅkakaṃkālaghanāmagandhi |
mādyacchivāvāyasakaṅkagṛdhrapiśācavetālavirāvaraudram || 25 ||

Thus I saw the funeral ground full of terrors, and covered with skeletons of half-burnt bodies and putrid carcasses also; it is infested by hungry dogs and howling jackals, and other voracious beasts, and the ravenous ravens and vultures. It is a place where the Vetala—demons and Pisacha—hobgoblins, revel with fearful shrieks and jarring sounds.
