The lustre (lejas) of all the objects known to possess it (especially the lustre of the enemies) farles into insignificance when Mahadeva with the superior lustre of his white stallions is speeding on the battlefield. When his army is on the move, huge columns of dust arise and settle on the surface of the ocean. Thus the water element is destroyed (of. karaagamya) by Mahadeva. The element of wind is destroyerl (samhrita) inasmuch as Mahadeva withdraws (cf. samhrila) the life-breath of all enemy kings. The members of the royal families of the enemies are required to take shelter in mountain caves [and forest recesses] when the enemies are no more. This means that the akasa element which is nothing but sunyata (emptiness) is also destroyed in the caves. All this disaster of the deluge sets in because Mahadeva subdues the earth. But after that he creates tejas in the form of his valour, water (i.e. tears) from the eyes of the enemies' wives, wind from their sighs and akasa (void, loneliness) in their houses. Thus there is Vastu-dhvani (i.e. suggestion of the superb valour of the king). In verse 26, there is Anupräsa as also Sangarapaka in that there is the superimposition of Iévara and his divine deels on Mahadeva and bis achievements. s There is Atiáayōkti of the asambandhe sambandhah type at the basis of Tulyayōgita (of. Phani-nāyaka, Kailana-baila and Vasava-varana with a single kriya). [There is Malarapaka, not Tulyayogita.Ed.] * Mahādēva's fame ascended ( reached) the throne of the moon, had its glory heightened (udanichita-ári by the chowry in the form of the heavenly Ganges, possessed eminently (uchchaiḥ kalayali) the glory of sovereignty, gladden. ed the universe, was waited on (jushta) by the stars which were only the contracted forms of the reputations of former kings pooled together, and was eulogised by large groups of gods standing motionless (nistarangaih) [with admiration] as they were enamoured (krish) of [his skill in swordsmanship. [The correction of arisha to krista is unnecessary as it refers to the persons who died while fighting with Mahadeva and went to heaven (i.e. became gods).-Ed.] • The idea that Mahadeva's fame had reached upto the moon is expressed by a Samasta-vastu vishaya-rupaka in which three upamanas are superimposed on three upamēyas.
