So saying he sallied forth in his great pride, thinking no more of Sugr¶va than of a blade of grass. The two brothers closed with each other. VŒli browbeat Sugr¶va, and striking him with his fist roared in a thundering voice. Sugr¶va now fled in dismay (and returned to Ýr¶ RŒma); the stroke of his clenched fist had fallen on him as a bolt from heaven. “What did I say, O gracious Hero of Raghu’s line? This is no brother of mine but Death himself.” “You two brothers are identical in appearance; it was because of this confusion that I did not kill him.” He stroked Sugr¶va’s body with His hand and Io ! It became as hard as adamant and all his pain was gone. He put on his neck a wreath of flowers and giving him enormous strength sent him back. Again the two brothers fought in many ways, while the Lord of Raghus watched them from behind a tree. (1—4)
