moment they struck his adamantine frame. Råvaƒa, who was maddened with the lust for
war and most furious by temperament, flinched not but remained firm as a rock, planting
his chariot where it stood. Burning all over with rage he darted and bullied hither and
thither and started crushing the monkey warriors. Many a bear and monkey took to his
heel, crying: ìHelp, help, A∆gada and Hanumån! Save, save, O Lord Raghuv∂ra (Hero
of Raghuís line)! This wretch is devouring us like Death.î When the monster saw that all
the monkeys had fled, he fitted an arrow to each of his ten bows. (1ó4)

Fitting an arrow to each of his bows, he shot a volley of arrows, which flew and
lodged like winged serpents. The shafts filled all available space on earth as well as in
the heavens including the eight quarters, so that the monkeys knew not where to go.
There was a wild uproar in the ranks of the monkeys and bears, who were all sore
distressed and cried in anguish: ìO Hero of Raghuís line, O Ocean of mercy, O
Befriender of the distressed, O Hari, O Saviour of mankind!î

Seeing the distress of his troops Lakmaƒa fastened the quiver to his waist; and

of rage. (82)
