Verse 4.26.58

वघुरशनिनिपातखण्डिताङ्गा दलितशिलाशकलाः ककुम्मुखेषु ।
प्रलयसमयसूचकाः सुराणां सुरतरुघर्घरघस्मराः समीराः ॥ ५८ ॥

vaghuraśaninipātakhaṇḍitāṅgā dalitaśilāśakalāḥ kakummukheṣu |
pralayasamayasūcakāḥ surāṇāṃ suratarughargharaghasmarāḥ samīrāḥ || 58 ||

Then there blew a tremendous tornado like the all-destroying Boreas of universal desolation;laying waste the trees of the garden of paradise, and threatening to destroy the gods; while the thunders of heaven were splitting and breaking down the mountains flung to the face of the sky.
