Sanskrit: ततश्चक्रुर्महात्मानः कुम्भकर्णस्य चाग्रतः। भूतानां मेरुसंकाशं राशिं परमतर्पणम्॥ मृगाणां महिषाणां च वराहाणां च संचयान्। चकुर्नैर्ऋतशार्दूला राशिमन्त्रस्य चाद्भुतम्॥
English: Then they huge bodied Rākșasas piled up before Kumbhakarma, Meru-like animals for conferring rare gratification and heaps of deer and buffaloes and boars. And the Rākşasas made an astounding heap of rice.
Sanskrit: ततः शोणितकुम्भांश्च मांांसानि विविधानि च। पुरस्तात्कुम्भकर्णस्य चक्रुस्त्रिदशशत्रवः॥ लिलिपुश्च परार्थेन चन्दनेन परंतपम्। दिव्यैराश्वासयामासुर्माल्यैर्गन्धैश्च गन्धिभिः॥ धूपगन्धांश्च ससृजुस्तुष्टुवुश्च परंतपम्। जलदा इव चानेदुर्यातुधानास्ततस्ततः॥
English: Then the enemies of the immortals put up before Kumbhakarņa jars of blood and various kinds of food, and smeared that repressor of foes with excellent sandal, and made him inhale perfumes and the aroma of wreaths. And they made (the place) rife with the incense of dhupa, and extolled that smiter of enemies. And then the Yātudhānas roared around here and there like clouds.
