Adhyathma Ramayanam - Esamskriti.com

All the world praised Hanuman,
And for the ten necked one fear increased ,
And so he travelled in to the army of Rakshasas,
And that ten faced one at that time saw ,
That the monkey army was spread all over ,
In Rameswaram, on the top of the bridge ,
As well as the entire Subela mountains ,
And saw his broken forts and afterwards ,
He quickly ordered , “Quickly bring Prahastha.”
And he immediately appeared before him.
When he asked “ did you not know all the facts ,
Do we not have leaders for our army ?
We cannot simply sit here when,
All the Rakshasa heroes who go are getting killed,
Either me, or you or my elder son has to go to the war,
So that the men and monkeys are subdued.
Please tell me who will go?”
And Prahastha saluting him told , “I will go.”
He then summoned the four ministers,
As well as the four winged army ,
The great hero Prahastha was the ,
Controller of the quarter army of Lanka,
And the four ministers, Kumbha,
Mahanadha , Durmuka and samunnatha,
Who was a great hero enemy of Devendra ,
Marched along with a very dense big army.
Though he saw ill omens on the way ,
Determined in his mind , well prepared ,
He started through the eastern gate ,
And fought with Nila , the son of fire God ,
The monkeys using stones, trees and mountains,
Started decimating the Rakshasa army ,
And the wheel , sword , spear , sakthi and arrows ,
Fell on the monkeys and many of them died.
Great elephants and horses died ,
