When the son of the wind-god saw his army in distress, he flew into a rage and
rushed forth as if he were death personified. He forthwith tore up a huge rock and hurled
it at Meghanåda with great fury. When he saw the rock coming towards him, he mounted
up into the air, leaving his car, charioteer and horses to perish. Again and again did
Hanumån challenge him to a duel, but the demon dared not come nearer; for he knew
the monkeyís real strength. Meghanåda now approached ›r∂ Råma and hurled every
kind of abuse at him. He tried weapons and missiles of every description against Him;
but the Lord with the utmost ease cut them asunder before they could reach Him. The
fool was put out of countenance when he saw the Lordís might, and began to practise
all sorts of illusive devices, as if catching hold of a poor little snakeling one were to
frighten GaruŒa and sport with him. (1ó4)

powerful Måyå (deluding potency) holds sway over all, both great and small, ›iva and
Vira¤ci (the Creator) not excepted. (51)

Mounting up into the air he rained down a shower of firebrands, and spouts of
water issued forth from the earth. Fiends and fiendesses of diverse form danced with
