It is said that the serpent had eight heads and eight tails; its eyes were as red as Chinese lantern plants; its back was covered with moss and trees; the belly was sore with blood; it was so huge that it could be spread over eight valleys and eight peaks.
8つの頭と8本の尾を持ち、目はホオズキのように真っ赤で、背中には苔や木が生え、腹は血でただれ、8つの谷、8つの峰にまたがるほど巨大とされている。
