1:0:1
 

 
ततो रावणनीतायाः सीतायाः शत्रुकर्शनः ।

इयेष पदमन्वेष्टुं चारणाचरिते पथि ॥
 

Then Hanuman, the vanquisher of foes,

desired to search along the route frequent-

ed by the Charanas for the place where

Sita, carried off by Ravana, was.
 

 
स सूर्याय महेन्द्राय पवनाय स्वयम्भुवे ।

भूतेभ्यश्चाञ्जलिं बध्वा चकार गमने मतिम् ॥
 

Saluting with folded hands, the Sun, the

Great Indra, Vayu, Brahma and all Beings,

he made his mind to proceed.
 

 
उत्पपाताथ वेगेन वेगवान विचारयन् ।

सुपर्णमिव चात्मानं मेने स कपिकुञ्जरः ॥
 

Then the swift one, Hanuman, flew up

with speed, undaunted. The best of

monkeys verily thought himself equal to

Suparna (Garuda).
