Thus the enormous monkey host went on day and night. And all those monkeys, delighted, guided by Sugrīva, and taking delight in battle, went on speedily. And they did not take rest even for a moment, desirous of rescuing Sītā.
सा स्म याति दिवारानं महती हरिवाहिनी॥ प्रहृष्टमुदिताः सर्वे सुग्रीवेणाभिपालिताः। वानरास्त्वरिता यान्ति सर्वे युद्धाभिनन्दिनः। प्रमोक्षयिषवः सीतां मुहूर्त क्वापि नावसन्॥
