Those Rākşasas that were prime have been slain in battle by the monkeys; but I find no destruction of the monkeys in fight. Nay, the monkeys have been before vanquished (by the Raksasas) in battle.
ये राक्षसा मुख्यतमा हतास्ते वानरैर्युधि वानराणां क्षयं युद्धे न पश्यामि कथंचन।। न चापि वानरा युद्धे जितपूर्वाः कदाचन॥
