## Second Chapter
The land is white with the dust of the Ketaki flower, its elevated regions resembling the banks of the Ganga, frequented by people. || 14 ||
In some places, the land is adorned with the verdant beauty of fields of vegetables, while in others, it is graced by coconut trees, savored by the forest guardians. || 15 ||
The land is filled with pomegranate groves, their flowers resembling the beaks of parrots and the faces of monkeys, creating an illusion. || 16 ||
The land is adorned with arbors of grapes, their leaves smeared with the juice of the Bijaura fruit, crushed by the hands of the forest guardians, and embellished with clusters of saffron flowers. Here, travelers find solace, sleeping peacefully after enjoying the taste of fruits and the coolness of water. These arbors resemble the resting places of the forest goddess. || 17-18 ||
The land is abundant with date palm trees, their fruits plucked and consumed by travelers, and with banana trees, their fruits scattered by monkeys. || 19 ||
The land is adorned with lakes, their banks covered with dense forests of Arjuna trees. The lakes resound with the cries of herds of cows, their waters teeming with leaping fish, their eyes wide open, resembling blooming white lotuses. The lakes are adorned with waves, their movements resembling a dance, and with swans, their melodious calls echoing like a song. The banks of these lakes are frequented by joyous crowds, and the lakes themselves are adorned with lotuses, their beauty enhanced by the presence of cranes. || 20-23 ||
The entire land is filled with flocks of sheep, camels, and calves, their beautiful bodies engaged in playful activities, protected by benevolent guardians. || 24 ||
Their backs are smeared with saffron paste, as if to attract the horses of the sun god's chariot, and their faces, with their playful movements, seem to be blowing the wind. || 25 ||
