Virabhadra was the terrible form of himself and the cause of the great Dissolution. Immediately he came smiling in front of™ the lord at the head of the Garias. He was surround- ed by extremely terrible leaders of the Ganas who were in their crores, who laughed boisterously, who had the forms of lionlike men and who were jumping about.
