Therefore, although afflicted and devoured by the Rākşasas dwelling in the forest of Dandaka, we do not cast our curse on them. You along with your brother are our protector: you are our master in this forest.
तेन शापं न मुञ्चामो भक्ष्यमाणाश्च राक्षसैः। तदर्घमानान् रक्षोभिर्दण्डकारण्यवासिभिः ॥ रक्षकस्त्वं सह भ्रात्रा त्वन्नाथा हि वयं वने।
