Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

भृकुटीकुटिलोत्कटमुखः सन्दष्ठोष्ठः स्पृशन्करेण करम् ।
क्रुद्धः स्वभुजाप्रेक्षी शत्रौ निर्यन्त्रणं रुष्येत्
bhṛkuṭīkuṭilotkaṭamukhaḥ sandaṣṭhoṣṭhaḥ spṛśankareṇa karam |
kruddhaḥ svabhujāprekṣī śatrau niryantraṇaṃ ruṣyet

The line

A face fierce with a crooked brow, the lip bitten, touching one hand with the other, looking at his own arm: the angry man would rage at an enemy without restraint.

नेपालीमा

बाङ्गो आँखीभौंले उग्र अनुहार, टोकिएको ओठ, एक हातले अर्को हात छोएर र आफ्नै पाखुरा हेर्दै क्रोधित मानिस शत्रुमाथि बिनारोकटोक क्रोध गर्छ।
