Thus there did they accost each other. And there was waged a terrific encounter between the monkeys and the Rākşasas, in which arms lay scattered about; and armour and weapons strewn around; and mighty prāsas' were upraised; and which was fought with blows and darts and swords and Kuntalas?

विप्रलम्भितशस्त्रं च विमुक्तकवचायुधम्। समुद्यतमहाप्रासं मुष्टिशूलासिकुन्तलम्॥ प्रावर्तत महारौद्रं युद्धं वानररक्षसाम्। वानरान्दश सप्तेति राक्षसा जघ्नुराहवे॥
