English Meaning
After a while the Rākşasa named Sumāli, coming up from the nether regions, began to range all over the earth. And resembling dark clouds, that lord of Rakşasas decked in ear-rings of burnished gold, taking his daughter like to Sri herself without her lotus, and wandering over the earth, saw the lord of riches journeying in his Puspaka, going to see his sire-that lord, the son of Pulastya. And seeing that one resembling an immortal and like to fire, journeying on, (Sumāli) struck with amazement, entered the nether regions from the earth.
