स वीरस्तत्र तद् दृष्ट्वा आत्मैश्वर्यातिशायनम्

हविर्धानीमृषेर्दर्पान्नरान् हर्तुमचोदयत् ।
 

ते च माहिष्मतीं निन्युः सवत्सां क्रन्दतीं बलात् ॥
 

The valorous Arjuna saw in that hermi-

tage of Jamadagni that excelling of his

own wealth. In his pride, he set his men

to carry away Kamadhenu; and they

forcibly took to Mahishmati (Arjuna's

capital) that bleating cow with its calf.
 

 
अथ राजनि निर्याते राम आश्रम आगतः ।

श्रुत्वा तत्तस्य दौरात्म्यं चुक्रोधाहिरिवाहतः ।

घोरमादाय परशुं सतूणं चर्म कार्मुकम् ।

अन्वधावत दुर्धर्षो मृगेन्द्र इव यूथपम् ॥
 

Then, when the king had gone, Rama,
who had returned, heard in the hermitage

who had returned, heard in the hermitage
of that wickedness of Arjuna and became

furious like a beaten serpent. Seizing his

terrible axe, quiver, shield and bow, the

inviolable Rama ran after Arjuna, like a

lion running after an elephant.
