do you expect to conquer Him in battle, whose messenger performed such feats?
Leaping across the ocean in mere sport, that lion among monkeys fearlessly entered
your La∆kå, killed your guards and laid waste your garden. Nay, he killed Prince Aka
under your very nose, and, setting fire to the whole capital, reduced it to ashes. Where
did your pride of power remain lurking at that time? Indulge no more in idle boasts,
my spouse, and lay my words a little to heart. Do not imagine that the Lord of the
Raghus is a mere earthly king, my husband; but know him to be the Ruler of the
animate and inanimate creation, unequalled in strength. The might of His arrows is
known to Mår∂ca; but you did not heed his words, taking him to be a mean fellow.
In Janakaís court were assembled numberless kings; you too were present there with
your incomparable and enormous strength. There ›r∂ Råma broke ›ivaís bow and won
the hand of Janakaís Daughter; why did you not conquer Him in battle then? The son
of Indra (the lord of celestials) tasted of His strength when He caught hold of him
and spared his life after destroying one of his eyes. You also witnessed ›µurpaƒakhåís
condition, yet you did not feel much abashed in your heart.î (1ó7)

ìMy ten-headed lord, try to recognize Him, who, having slain Virådha as well as
Khara and Dµuaƒa, killed Kabandha in mere sport and disposed of Våli with a single
arrow.î (36)

ìHe who had the ocean bridged as a mere pastime and has encamped with His
of S∂tå; and the latter offered to give him alms while keeping within the line. Råvaƒa, however, refused to
accept the alms from within a barrier and carried off S∂tå as soon as She overstepped the boundary.
