Yuddha Kanda 60.79
पीत्वा घटसहस्रे द्वे गमनायोपचक्रमे। ईषत्समुत्कटो मत्तस्तेजोबलसमन्वितः॥ कुम्भकर्णो बभौ रुष्टः कालान्तकयमोपमः। भ्रातुः स भवनं गच्छन्रक्षोबलसमन्वितः।। कुम्भकर्णः पदन्यासैरकम्पयत मेदिनीम् ॥
Having drunk two thousand vessels (of wine) he prepared to go. And slightly swollen and flushed, Kumbhakarma, attaining access of strength and fire, waxed wroth and resembled the Doom and Destroyer-Yama himself. And striding to the residence of his brother backed by the Raksasa force, Kumbhakarņa shook the earth with his tread.
Yuddha Kanda 60.80
स राजमार्गं वपुषा प्रकाशयन् सहस्ररश्मिर्धरणीमिवांशुभिः। जगाम तत्राञ्जलिमालया वृतः शतक्रतुर्गेहमिव स्वयंभुवः॥
Illuming the highway with the splendour of his person, like the thousand-rayed (Sun) discovering the earth with his rays, (Kumbhakarna) went on, engirt around by joined hands resembling wreaths, like Śatakratu* going to the abode of the Self-sprung. *Lit. him of an hundred sacrifices-an appellation of Indra.
Yuddha Kanda 60.81

Suddenly seeing that slayer of foes of immeasurable prowess, resembling a mountainsummit, walking along the highways, the woodrangers stationed outside (the monkey-camp), along with the leaders of bands, were seized with affright.
Yuddha Kanda 60.82
केचिच्छरण्यं शरणं स्म रामं व्रजन्ति केचिद्व्यथिताः पतन्ति। केचिदिशश्च व्यथिताः पतन्ति केचिद्भयार्ता भुवि शेरते स्म ॥
Then some sought the shelter of Răma, worthy of being so sought; and some, stricken (with panic), dropped to the earth; and some, suffering (from fear), fled to the carindal points; and some through stress (of apprehension) lay down on the ground.
Yuddha Kanda 60.83
तमद्रिशृङ्गप्रतिमं किरीटिनं स्पृशन्तमादित्यमिवात्मतेजसा। वनौकसः प्रेक्ष्य विवृद्धमद्भुतं भयादिता दुदुविरे यतस्ततः॥
Seeing that one resembling a very mountainpeak, decked with a diadem, seeming to touch the Sun himself with his energy, of colossal altitude, and wonderful to behold, the woodrangers, tormented with fright, began to scamper on all sides.
