- Gaudavaho ("Slaying of the Gauda king") is an 8th-century Prakrit-language epic poem by Vakpati-raja. It narrates the exploits of the poet's patron, king Yashovarman, who ruled in northern India. A little over 1200 verses of the text are known from several manuscripts. According to some scholars such as Georg Bühler, the surviving text is only a prelude to the larger poem that Vakpati intended to write, but possibly never finished. (en)

- You strike terror even with these pillars decorated with cloth dyed red, prominently displaying, as it were, circular heaps of flesh butchered for your offering. (en)
- They look beautiful with a pair of their rounded breasts, swelling at the prospect of getting from their lover a close embrace, which look very much like a pair of wheels of the Kamadeva's chariot heading towards their lover. (en)
