Civaṉ flayed an elephant`s skin, the blood to run and flow as a river.
he unfolded it to make Umayāḷ seized with fear and her fingers quiver.
seeing her distress when Civan flayed and covered himself with the skin.
wore it for a little while.
appeared unable to wear it for a long time.
Civaṉ in Tiruppayaṟṟūr also laughed showing his teeth.
