O king of kings, hearing all this in detail, Sugriva, the lord of the monkeys together with his consort and attendants joined his palms with humility and joyfully told Lakshmana, the most valiant of men, these words.
सर्वमशेषेण श्रुत्वा प्रह्वः कृताञ्जलिः॥ सभृत्यदारो राजेन्द्र सुग्रीवो वानराधिपः। इदमाह वचः प्रीतो लक्ष्मणं नरकुञ्जरम्॥
