O King, some soldiers fought on the backs of vultures, eagles, ducks, hawks and bhāsa birds. Some fought on the backs of timiṅgilas, which can devour huge whales, some on the backs of śarabhas, and some on buffalo, rhinoceroses, cows, bulls, jungle cows and aruṇas. Others fought on the backs of jackals, rats, lizards, rabbits, human beings, goats, black deer, swans and boars. In this way, mounted on animals of the water, land and sky, including animals with deformed bodies, both armies faced each other and went forward.
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
O King! Some soldiers fought on the backs of vultures, eagles, cranes, hawks and other types of vultures. Some fought on the backs of timiṅgila fish, some on the backs of śarabhas, [Note: This is an animal with eight legs and the strength of an elephant and lion.] and some on buffalo, rhinoceroses, cows, bulls, jungle cows and aruṇas. Others fought on the backs of jackals, rats, lizards, rabbits, human beings, goats, black deer, swans and boars. In this way, mounted on animals of the water, land and sky, including animals with deformed bodies, both armies faced each other and went forward. Bastaiḥ means “on goats.”
