This is my race; and I have come hither a monkey for obtaining a, sight of the Rākṣasa chief. And it is to attain a sight of the Rākṣasa lord that I have destroyed his peerless grove; and it is for this that, the powerful Rākşasas seeking for fight, I for the preservation of my person have resisted them in conflict.
जातिरेव मम त्वेषा वानरोऽहमिहागतः। दर्शने राक्षसेन्द्रस्य तदिदं दुर्लभं मया॥ वनं राक्षसराजस्य दर्शनार्थे विनाशितम्। ततस्ते राक्षसाः प्राप्ता बलिनो युद्धकाटिणः॥ रक्षणार्थं च देहस्य प्रतियुद्धा मया रणे।
