Considering well your preparations for war and Ravana's vain conduct, hearing of Vah's destruction and Sugrīva's installation on the throne he has, impelled by his good sense, come here, desirous of gaining the kingdom. Taking these into account, it seems prudent to take him to our side.
उद्योगं तव संप्रेक्ष्य मिथ्यावृत्तं च रावणम्। वालिनं च हतं श्रुत्वा सुग्रीवं चाभिषेचितम्॥ राज्यं प्रार्थयमानस्तु बुद्धिपूर्वमिहागतः। एतावतु पुरस्कृत्य विद्यते तस्य संग्रहः॥
