Their cry that is produced from the tongue root (soft palate) shall be called ‘frothy’; that produced from the lip and the (hard) palate (tālujanita) is ‘boated’ (?) [tat potāyitamoṣṭhatālujanitaṃ]; that produced in the throat is their ‘roar’, that produced in the cheeks and trunk, their ‘laughter’. All these are auspicious. The sounds of elephants that are due to hunger, thirst, grief, and fright are declared to be very inauspicious.
