Sanskrit Text

जिह्माक्षाः प्रललाटाश्च निर्मांसहनवोऽपि वक्रबाह्वङ्गुलीसक्ताः कृशा धमनिसंतताः

English Translation

Those, who have crooked eyes, and broad foreheads, and check-bones not fleshy, and arms strong as thunderbolts, and fingers bearing circular marks, and who are sparely built, and whose arteries and nerves are visible, rush with great impetuosity when the collision of battle takes place. Resembling angry elephants, they become irresistible.
