THE RAMAYANA
अध्यास्ते नगरीं लङ्कां रावणो नाम राक्षसः ॥
Hear me tell you the abode of that
Rakshasa. That Rakshasa, Ravana by
name, dwells in Lanka City.
इतो द्वीपे समुद्रस्य संपूर्
तस्
In an island in the sea, at a distance of
one hundred yojanas from here, the
beautiful City of Lanka was built by
Visvakarma.
तस्यां वसति वैदेही राक्षसीभिः समावृता ।
तत्रैव त्वरिताः क्षिप्रं विक्रमध्वं प्लवङ्गमाः ॥
There Sita lives surrounded by demo-
nesses. O monkeys, go thither quickly in
haste.
ज्ञानेन खलु पश्यामि दृष्ट्वा प्रत्यागमिष्यथ ॥
I see through my inner vision that you
will find her and return."
संपातेर्वचनं श्रुत्वा हरयो रावणक्षयम् ।
हृष्टाः सागरमाज
