Having thus addressed the king of Rakşasas always obeying Rāghava's command, Käkutstha said to Hanumān:— It is settled that you shall live forever, do you, now observe your promise. As long as my history shall run current in this world do you at my command live happily. Being thus addressed by the high-souled Rāghava Hanumān attained to great delight and said. As long as the sacred theme shall pass current in this world I shall live here carrying out your commands.
तमेवमुक्त्वा काकुत्स्थो हनूमन्तमथाब्रवीत्। जीविते कृतबुद्धिस्त्वं मा प्रतिज्ञां वृथा कृथाः।।२९ मत्कथाः पर्चरिष्यन्ति यावल्लोके हरीश्वर। तावद्रमस्व सुप्रीतो मद्वाक्यमनुपालयन्।३०॥ एवमुक्तस्तु हनुमानराघवेण महात्मना। वाक्यं विज्ञापयामास परं हर्षमवाप च।३१॥ यावत्तव कथा लोके विचरिष्यति पावनी। तावत्स्थास्यामि मेदिन्यां तवाज्ञामनुपालयन्॥
