Adipurana
The trees of that forest were like the kings, for just as kings are endowed with good radiance, so too were the trees of that forest endowed with good shade. Just as kings are endowed with wealth, so too were the trees of that forest endowed with fruits. Just as kings are noble and tall, so too were the trees of that forest tall. Just as kings are adorned with many chariots and other paraphernalia, so too were the trees of that forest adorned with many leaves. And just as kings are those who remove the suffering of poverty, so too were the trees of that forest those who removed the heat of the sun. Thus, the soldiers of Bharata were taking shelter under the trees, which were like kings, with great love. || 105 ||

Many of the soldiers were leaving behind the large trees that had good shade but no fruit, and were taking shelter under the smaller trees that had little shade but bore fruit. Meaning - Just as servants leave behind a miserly master who is wealthy but does not give proper wages, and take shelter under a generous master who is poor but gives proper wages, so too were the soldiers leaving behind the large fruitless trees and taking shelter under the smaller fruitful trees. || 106 ||

The soldiers were leaving behind the temporary shade outside and sitting under the shade of the trees that would come later. || 107 ||

Many soldiers, along with their wives, were sitting on the banks of the ponds, the sun's rays blocked by the shade of the trees of the forest. || 108 ||

The trees of the forest, under which the kings were sitting with their wives, bound by mutual love, were clearly displaying the beauty born of the Kalpa trees. Meaning - Those trees of the forest seemed like Kalpa trees, and the men and women sitting under them seemed like the Aryas and Aryas of the land of enjoyment. || 109 ||

The monkeys, shaking the buds of the Kadamba trees, were disturbing the soldiers sitting under the creepers, because the hairs of the Kadamba buds cause itching when they touch the body. || 110 ||

Near the ponds were soft grasses that could be grazed at will and that could be broken by the mere breath.
