English	When the ten Pracetās emerged from the sea, where they had been performing austerities, they saw that the entire surface of the earth was covered with trees. The Pracetās became very angry at the trees and, desiring to burn them to ashes, generated fire and wind from their mouths. Then Soma, the moon god, appeared before the Pracetās to appease their anger.
