 एतत्ते सर्वमाख्यातं यथैतद्दारुणं वनम्।यक्ष्या चोत्सादितं सर्वमद्यापि न निवर्तते।। 
 You have been told the manner in which this fierce forest is entirely ruined by that cruel yakshini. Tell now she has not left this place".     Thus ends the twentyfourth sarga of Balakanda of the holy Ramayana the first epic composed by sage Valmiki.
