vyomni bhramanti gajavājimṛgendranāgavṛkṣādrikānanamahītalatulyadehāḥ || 56 ||

The clouds were roaring aloud with deep and appalling thunder, and the billows were flashing like frightful lightnings in the air; elephants, horses, and ferocious lions were wandering in the atmosphere, and forests as large as the earth, were floating in the sky.
