He tightened His belt and flapped his arms like a wrestler

His body was beautiful and delicate
His color resembled that of a cloud
His feet resembled a lotus flower
He was decorated with Srivatsa, jewelsand yellow garments
He was smiling and playing in Yamuna
Kaliya feels anger rise within his heart

Howling winds
Earth trembled
