उल्कापाताः सनिर्घाता भूमिकम्पस्तथैव च । पतते पांशुवर्षं च निर्घोषश्चैव दारुणः

Mārkaṇḍeya
Scene: A darkened sky streaked with meteors; thunderclouds split by lightning; the ground fissures with quake-lines; a curtain of dust falls like rain; an unseen roar suggested by vibrating air and fleeing birds.
