What you have said touching Rama's (prowess), has been heard by me. And I also know you to be of sterling valour in the field. Yet why, knowing Rāma's prowess, do you silently look at each other?
यदुक्तवन्तो रामस्य भवन्तस्तन्मया श्रुतम्। भवतश्चाप्यहं वेधि युद्धे सत्यपराक्रमान्।। तूष्णीकानीक्षतोन्योन्यं विदित्वा रामविक्रमम् ॥
