Valleys between Mountains - Verse 8-11

Between the mountains Tamravarna and Patahga, there is a highly sacred lake, a hundred Yojanas wide and two hundred Yojanas long. It is beautified with white lotuses as refulgent as the midday sun and full-blown red big lotuses with thousand petals. The water therein shines with sweet-smelling, blooming, red and blue lilies with the honey bees resting within. The lake is resorted to by Devas, Danavas and great serpents. It is decorated with clusters of blue lotus flowers.
