Let thousands of Raksasas, heroic, terrible, fearful to behold, and wearing forms at will, appointed by the lord of Rākṣasa, presenting themselves before Käkutstha in palpably human shapes, calmly say to that foremost of the Raghus, 'Despatched have we been by your younger brother.' Hearing this, he (Rāma), summoning his forces without delay, shall come hither.
कामरूपधराः शूराः सुभीमा भीमदर्शनाः। राक्षसानां सहस्राणि राक्षसाधिप निश्चिताः॥ काकुत्स्थमुपसंगम्य विवृतं मानुषं वपुः। सर्वे ह्यसंभ्रमा भूत्वा ब्रुवन्तु रघुसत्तमम्॥ प्रेषिता भरतेनैव भ्रात्रा तव यवीयसा। स हि सेनां समुत्थाप्य क्षिप्रमेवोपयास्यति॥
