Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 3
गर्जतां देवदैत्यानां शंखभेरीरवेण च । तूर्याणां चैव निर्घोषैर्मातंगानां च बृंहितैः
garjatāṃ devadaityānāṃ śaṃkhabherīraveṇa ca | tūryāṇāṃ caiva nirghoṣairmātaṃgānāṃ ca bṛṃhitaiḥ
Con el rugido de dioses y asuras, con el clamor de caracolas y tambores, con el estruendo de los instrumentos de guerra y con el barrito de los elefantes, el campo de batalla resonó por doquier.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) to the sages
Scene: A battlefield alive with sound: conch-blowers, drummers at kettle-drums, musicians with war-horns, elephants trumpeting; devas and asuras roar; banners whip in the wind as the air vibrates.
