dhara-on the surface of the globe; adhara-osthah-whose lower lip; jalada-uttara-osthah-whose upper lip was touching the clouds; dari-anana-antah-whose mouth was expanded very widely like a mountain cave; giri-srṅga-like a mountain peak; damstrah-whose teeth; dhvanta-antah-asyah-within whose mouth the atmosphere was as dark as possible; vitata-adhva-jihvah-whose tongue was like a broad way; parusa-anila-svasa-whose breath was like a warm wind; dava-iksana-usnah-and whose glance was like flames of fire.
