The Trishatama Parva
The Nira river, whose water is held back by the branches of the Vetasa trees, and whose flow has uprooted the trees on the banks. The Mula river, whose flow is constantly breaking the banks, and whose roots are firmly anchored. The Bana river, whose sound is never-ending. The Ketva river, filled with water. The Kariri river, whose banks have been broken by elephants, or whose banks are covered with Kariri trees, and which is the best of rivers. The Prahara river, polluted by the Vishamagrahas (low-born men), like a woman of loose morals, or polluted by large crocodiles. The Murra river, free from mud (or free from faults), like a virtuous woman, and served by the Kurara birds. The Para river, whose banks are filled with the sounds of the Krauncha, Kalahansa (goose), and Sarasa birds. The Madana river, whose water is equal and flows on low ground, and whose flow is never interrupted. The Godavari river, which flows like the flowing Madya (intoxicating drink) of the Sahya mountain, which flows in many streams, whose flow is never interrupted, and which is very wide. The Tapi river, whose banks are covered with forests of Kariri trees, and whose water is slightly warm from the heat of the sun. The Langal-Khatika river, which is beautiful, whose banks are shaded by trees, and where the young of the seven kinds of deer sleep, and which is like a ditch in the west.
The commander-in-chief crossed all these rivers with his army. At that time, he also captured wild elephants that were intoxicated with Madya.
The army of Bharata, which had spread its tongue-like rivers to drink the ocean, crossed the Sahya mountain and reached the Vindhya mountain.
Bharata, the Chakravarti, saw the Vindhya mountain as his equal, because just as he was the lord of the Bhumi-bhritas (kings), so was the Vindhya mountain the lord of the Bhumi-bhritas (mountains). Just as he was Uttunga (very generous), so was the Vindhya mountain Uttunga (very high).
