विविधैर अतिनिर्विद्धैः शस्त्रॊपेतैः सुसंवृतैः शक्तिभिश चावृतं तद धि दविजिह्वैर इव पन्नगैः तल्पैश चाभ्यासिकैर युक्तं शुशुभे यॊधरक्षितम ॥ १-१९९-३२ ॥

'The city was fortified with gateways that soared like clouds and stood tall as Mount Mandara. Well-equipped with an array of offensive weapons, it was impervious to enemy missiles. The walls bristled with darts and other projectiles, resembling venomous serpents. Turrets along the walls housed soldiers engaged in constant training, while warriors lined the entire length of the ramparts.' ॥ 1-199-32 ॥
