*The Order of Battle*
[A NOTE ON CATALOGUES:
This and the next Canto represent a form that is common to many schools of
narrative poetry. Early in the Iliad, for example, Homer has a catalogue of
all the ships invading Troy. Here we have a classified catalogue of both
sides in King _padma's War.
The reader should never forget that this work is presented orally; indeed,
it is best read aloud. That is how the Bard would do it. He would awaken
with words the imagination of his listeners, using the devices of an actor
to portray landscape and character.
Though it seems a formidable task, I would advise the reader not to skip
the ORDER OF BATTLE. Each of these names is at least a village, where
people have been called to war, where many will die, and a few run away. jd]
*vasiSTha** said: *

मातङ्ग-शव-शैलेषु विश्रान्त-अम्बु.द-पङ्क्तिषु । यक्ष-रक्षः-पिशाचेषु क्रीडत्सु

*And so—*
*they looked like hills, those heaps of spears;*
*and the all-fearful*
*ran,*
*broken in spirit,*
*wounded,—*
*ran away in all ten directions,*
*rushed past hills of dead elephants;*
*and clouds of _yakshas, _rakshas,*
*and _pizaacha Zombies playing their games in the bloody ocean.*
महताम् धर्म-निष्ठानाम् शील-ओजस्-सत्त्व-शालिनाम् । शुद्धानाम् कुल-पद्मानाम्

*Of the great ones,*
*—of the -dharma‑settled ones,*
*with good manners, full of courage in _sattva,*
*—of those pure ones,*
*—of the lotuses of their clan,*
*—of the heroic ones,*
*—of those who do not run away,—*
*two dueling troops of peoples met like two erupting clouds,*
*and each sought to swallow the other,*
*like a river flooding a city.*
पञ्जरः पञ्जरेन_इव गज-ओघेन गज-उच्चयः । स.वनः स.वनेन_अद्रिः_अद्रिणा_इव_अमिलत्_

*The horses meet like joining floods,*
*a jangling rushing multitude joining in noise,*
*like a sea-surge of waves meeting another surge.*

*Infantry meet-with infantry*
*--fighting together equally as bamboo spears meet bamboo spears,—*
*a forest clattering in the wind; chariot-flood against chariot-flood—*
*body pounding body—*
*it was like city fighting city, when the gods fought the _asura Darklings.*

*The archers sent a flow of arrows in an overflowing cloud—*

*Where the sides were unequal, those more numerous won easily;*
*but when they were outnumbered,*
*those warriors fled the hellfire of war.*

*Thus they met:*
*the Discuses met with Discuses—*

*and the Cudgels with Cudgels—*
*Crowbars with Crowbars—*
*tapered clubs against tapered clubs!—*
*Glittering iron maces fought maces—*

*meathooks raised against meathooks;—*
*miners undermined miners,*
*and tridents fought against tridents;*

*A whirl of discuses,*
*a whirlpool of petaled arrows that showered in the wind,*
*and fire-catapults—*

*Blossoming with weapons,*
*tossing with wave-heads of waterRovers,*
*—this—*
*the _rodorandhra Sea, that lies between the heavens and earth,*
*was hard for immortals to cross.*

the Yakshas and Rákshasas, and the carnivorous Pisáchas, to come and sport

**vlm.3. Now there commenced a commutual contest, betwixt men of rank and
virtue, and those of good character, valour and strength on both sides; not
excepting even the holy and household people, all of whom took part in the

either of these meanings coming out of the words. The word does not seem to
break as suggested, since I don't see what "parNA" and "vamA" could
possibly mean. I would imagine the word giri-parNa-avama with its nom.
plural form. The word avama can have a meaning of "lower" . These could be
inhabitants of giri-parNa - a branch of a mountain, or even people living
under a shelter of the branch or even in a valley of the branch. I agree
with your meaning of the second line. The word mleccha in modern times is
associated with the muslims, but in older literature, it often means
foreign, difficult to understand. mleccha speech means convoluted speech.

the mountains kraunca and madhumAn covered with snow (himavAn). It is

**DC - In Kailas, and rich Meru, - from these both places, people Madravas,
Yaudheyas, Malavas and Zurasenas
**AS-> This seems to have numerous "typos". The word ubhe does not seem to
make sense. It probably should be ubhau, but it is not a typo made by the
current encoders. It may also be explained as ArSa, because ubhe is a valid
form in Rigveda. It is also possible that this was a very different word
"ime". I can easily see how it can be mistaken by transcribers. It would
make a more natural sense. The word senikA: seems to be also an original
typo - it should be sainikAH. The creative interpretation by DC as
zUrasenika would have resolved this, but in my opinion it still does not
explain the transformation of the word senA into senika.
The word kailAse should have been kailAso. That is a typo made by the
current encoders. Here is my meaning. (Continuing the list of northerly
mountains) kailAsa, vasumAn, meru; in their regions are the peoples: both
madras who fight all the way to revA (ArevayaudheyAH) and the brave
fighters mAlava. It is unclear what two madras are being described. I know
of only one kind who live more in the Northwest.

**vlm.67. Thus Lila saw in one view, the residences of the devas; the
forest lands and the earth in all their beauty. She saw all the seats of
opulence (viswavasus), and the edifices with which they were adorned; she
beheld the summit of Kailása, and the delightful groves at its foot, and
the level lands traversed by the aerial cars of Vidyádhara and celestial
beings. * It was easy for the lively Lílá, to learn about these peoples and
their native lands in her lonely Yoga meditation, by the help of the
goddess of learning; but it is hard for us to identify them without
subjecting ourselves to a long labour of love, which is a sort of Yoga
also, called vidya Yoga, or intense application
and self devotion to learning.
