ìCreepers have entwined themselves round gigantic trees, spreading as it were a
variety of canopies in the sky. The plantains and stately palms are standing like beautiful
pennons and standards; he alone who is stout of heart could help being fascinated by
their sight. Trees of every description are adorned with flowers of various kinds, like
warriors arrayed in all their different kinds of panoply. Other beautiful trees standing here
and there look charming like champions separately encamped. The murmuring cuckoos
are his excited elephants; herons and rooks, his camels and mules; peacocks, Cakoras
and parrots, his noble war-horses; the pigeons and swans, his Arab steeds; the
partridges and quails, his foot soldiers. But there is no describing the whole host of
Cupid. Mountain rocks are his chariots; the rills, his kettledrums; the Cåtakas, the bards
that utter his praises; the garrulous bees are his trumpets and clarionets and the soft,
cool and fragrant breezes have come in the capacity of his ambassadors. Accompanied
by an army complete in all its four limbs (viz., the horse, the foot, the chariots and the
elephants), he goes about challenging all to a combat. Lakmaƒa, they who remain firm
even at the sight of Cupidís battle-array are men that count in this world. His greatest
strength lies in woman; he alone who can escape her is a mighty champion.
