36. [They appeared like those] who, with their essential profound depths, hold the reflections of water-dwelling birds and the sky itself, just as a bee settles into the lotuses.

39. The sky manifested as abundant flowers of spray, and trees of massing waves, appearing like forests of water, and clusters of waves.

40. adhaḥ proḍḍīṇaprāṇimanti sarattaraṅgajālāni,
ākāśakhaṇḍakhaṇḍatvāt vibhramāt patitāni iva (āsīt)
40. The moving masses of waves, with soaring creatures below them, appeared as if they had fallen, due to the illusion that they were fragmented pieces of the sky.

41. A line shone brightly upon the summit of the sky-mountain, which resembled the earth, a summit that extended to the long shore of the tumultuous saltwater ocean and whose upper parts were fragmented by the violent dance of cardamom, clove, bakula, amalaki, tamala, hintala, and tala trees and their leaves.
