jaba lagi grasata na taba lagi jatanu karahu taji ¢eka.36.
ìRåmaís arrows are like a swarm of serpents, while the demon host can only
compare with frogs. Therefore, giving up obstinacy, devise some means of safety before
the serpents devour them.î (36)

When the foolish Råvaƒa, who was known all the world over for his haughtiness,
heard Mandodar∂ís admonition, he roared with laughter, ìA woman is timorous by nature,
it is truly said. She entertains fear even on an auspicious occasion; for her mind is very
weak. If the monkey host comes, the poor demons would feast on them and sustain
themselves. The very guardians of the spheres tremble for fear of me; how ridiculous
that you, my wife, should be afraid!î So saying he laughed and embraced her and then
left for his council-chamber exhibiting great fondness for her. Mandodar∂, however, felt
troubled at heart and thought that heaven had turned against her lord. As he occupied
his royal seat in the council-chamber, he received intelligence that all the invading host
had arrived on the other side of the ocean. He thereupon asked his councillors; ìGive
me proper advice.î They however, laughed and submitted, ìOnly remain quiet, my lord.
Your Majesty experienced no difficulty when you conquered the gods and demons. Of
what account, then, can men and monkeys be?î
