क्वचिदाकण्ठनिर्मग्नक्वणद्विद्याधरीगणः ।
क्वचित्स्वप्नमृतेभाभयाम्योग्रमहिषावृतः ॥ २१ ॥

kvacidākaṇṭhanirmagnakvaṇadvidyādharīgaṇaḥ |
kvacitsvapnamṛtebhābhayāmyogramahiṣāvṛtaḥ || 21 ||

There were the Vidyadhara females drowned up to their necks in the slime, and crying in their piteous chimes in one place; and there were the big bodied buffaloes of Yama lying in another, and resembling the huge bodies of dead elephants appearing in dream.
