The stones were magic stones, the ground was
of gold, he was connected by lineage with
the Upholder of the World. His town was of
gold surrounded by the sea; he had a great host
of demons. Ten times eight thousand were his
wives; the chief of his queens was Mandodari.
His sons and grandsons who can count? The
chief of his sons prevailed over Indra. Fourteen
ages he lived; his brother was Kumbhakarna.
Though all the gods were his slaves, says Tuka, he
took away with him not a cowri when he
perished.
