Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 105
रेसतू रोदसी तूर्णं मुमुहुश्च महर्षयः । व्यनदंश्च महाकाया दैत्या जलधरोपमाः
resatū rodasī tūrṇaṃ mumuhuśca maharṣayaḥ | vyanadaṃśca mahākāyā daityā jaladharopamāḥ
Sogleich erbebten die beiden Welten — Himmel und Erde — und schrien auf; die großen ṛṣis gerieten in Bestürzung. Und die riesenleibigen Daityas, gleich Massen von Gewitterwolken, brüllten laut auf.
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) narrating to the sages (deduced)
Scene: Heaven and earth tremble; ṛṣis stand stunned; colossal Daityas, dark as monsoon clouds, roar, filling the quarters with thunder-like sound.
