If, immediately after sunset on the Āṣāḍhī Yoga day, there should blow the south-west wind, sweeping into the sea the cardamom and clove fruits, the Earth will be filled with the bones of those that die from want of food and drink and the appearance of the Earth will resemble that of a young lady just losing her husband.
