That mighty monkey-son to the Wind godhaving destroyed the Rākşasas and arrived (in the midst of the host), attained heroic glory, even as did Vişnu, having slain that destroyer of enemies-the mighty and dreadful Asura possessed of exceeding strength, stationed in the ban of the forces. And then the deities and Rāma himself and the highly powerful Lakşmaņa, also the monkeys headed by Sugrīva, and Vibhīşaņa endowed with great strength, honoured that monkey.
स वीरशोभामभजन्महाकपिः समेत्य रक्षांसि निहत्य मारुतिः। महासुरं भीमममित्रनाशनं विष्णुर्यथैवोरुबलं चमूमुखे॥ अपूजयन्देवगणास्तदा कपि स्वयं च रामोतिबलश्च लक्ष्मणः। तथैव सुग्रीवमुखाः प्लवंगमा विभीषणश्चैव महाबलस्तदा॥
