So saying, the Lord of the Raghus bowed His head at the BrŒhma˜as’ lotus feet even as He urged forward His chariot. Thereupon RŒva˜a felt much enraged at heart and darted to meet Him, challenging Him in a thundering voice: “Listen, hermit: I am not like one of those warriors whom you have vanquished in battle. My name is RŒva˜a, whose glory is known all the world over, and whose prison holds within its walls the regents of the spheres! You slew Khara, Dµµuƒa˜a and VirŒdha and killed poor VŒli even as a hunter would shoot his game. Nay, you wiped out a host of demon champions and killed even Kumbhakar˜a and MeghanŒda. Today I will, wreak vengeance on you for all this unless, O prince, you flee away from the battle. Today I will surely give you over to death; for it is the relentless RŒva˜a whom you have to deal with.” Hearing his foul talk the All-merciful took him as doomed to death and smilingly replied as follows: “True, true is all your greatness. But prate no more; show your valour if you can. (1—5)
