The Lord of Raghus proceeded still further and approached the ⁄Rƒyamµuka hill. There dwelt Sugr¶va (a monkey chief*) with his counsellors. When he saw the two were incarnations of gods. They could change their form at will and were not only endowed with human brothers, the highest embodiments of immeasurable strength, he was exceedingly alarmed and said (to one of his ministers), “Listen, HanumŒn: those two men are repositories of strength and beauty. Disguised as a BrŒhma˜a student go and see them and perceiving their intention in your mind inform me accordingly by means of signs. If they have been despatched by the malicious VŒli, I must leave this hill and flee away at once.” Taking the form of a BrŒhma˜a the monkey (HanumŒn) went up to the two brothers and bowing his head accosted them thus: “Who are you, heroes—one of dark hue, the other fair—that roam the woods disguised as Kƒatriyas? Treading the hard ground with your tender feet, wherefore are you wandering in the forest, my masters? Though possessed of delicate, charming and beautiful limbs, how is it that you have exposed yourself to the scorching sun and stormy wind of these wild regions? Do you count in the Trinity (viz., BrahmŒ, Viƒ˜u and Ýiva, the Creator, Preserver and Destroyer of the three worlds) or are you the twin divine sages Nara and NŒrŒya˜a? (1—5)
