SUNDARAKANDA
हनुमांश्च महाबाहुः प्रणम्य शिरसा ततः ।
नियतामक्षतां देवीं राघवाय न्यवेदयत् ॥
323
Then the mighty armed Hanuman
bowed with his head
to Raghava and
informed him of Sita the
queen being
without stain and without scathe:
तत्र लङ्केति नगरी रावणस्य दुरात्मनः ।
दक्षिणस्य समुद्रस्य तीरे वसति दक्षिणे ॥
There is on the southern bank of the
southern ocean a City called Lanka
which belongs to the wicked Ravana.
तत्र सीता मया दृष्टा रावणान्तःपुरे सती ।
संन्यस्य त्वयि जीवन्ती रामा राम मनोरथम् ॥
O Rama, there, in Ravana's seraglio Sita
was by me found alive, charming, virtuous,
with all desire concentrated on you.
सा मया नरशार्दल विश्वासमुपपादिता ।
रामसुग्रीवसख्यं च श्रुत्वा प्रीतिमुपागता ॥
O best of men, she was inspired with
confidence by me. Hearing of the friend-
ship between Rama and Sugriva, she
rejoiced.
