When the ten-headed monster perceived the multiplication of his heads, he thought
no more of his own death, but was seized with burning wrath. The fool roared in his great
pride and rushed forward with all his ten bows drawn. Flying into a rage on the battlefield,
the ten-headed monster discharged a shower of arrows and screened with it the
chariot of ›r∂ Råma (the Lord of the Raghus), which was lost to sight for nearly half an
hour, even as the sun is obscured by mist. When the gods raised a piteous cry, the Lord
took up His bow, full of wrath. Intercepting the enemyís arrows He struck off his heads,
which covered all the quarters as well as the intermediate points of the compass, as well

monkeysí hearts as they uttered the cries of ìVictory, Victory!! Where is Lakmaƒa?
Where is Sugr∂va, the lord of the monkeys? Where is the hero of Raghuís line, the lord
of Kosala?î (1ó4)

ìWhere is Råma?î cried the multitudes of heads as they sped. The monkeys took
to flight as they saw them. The Jewel of Raghuís line smilingly fitted arrows to His bow
and shot the heads through and through. Taking a rosary of skulls in their hands a large
