अङ्गुल्या न समो रामो मम युद्धे स मानुषः। तव भाग्येन सम्प्राप्तं भजस्व वरवर्णिनि ॥ एवमुक्ता तु वैदेही क्रुद्धा संरक्तलोचना। अब्रवीत् परुषं वाक्यं रहिते राक्षसाधिपम्॥
aṅgulyā na samo rāmo mama yuddhe sa mānuṣaḥ| tava bhāgyena samprāptaṃ bhajasva varavarṇini || evamuktā tu vaidehī kruddhā saṃraktalocanā| abravīt paruṣaṃ vākyaṃ rahite rākṣasādhipam||
English Meaning
Rāma is a human being and is not even equal to a finger of mine in battle. By your good luck have I come to you-do you give yourself up to me, O you of a beautiful countenance. Being thus addressed by him, Vaidehi exceedingly wroth and with blood-red eyes spoke to that Lord of Rākşasas in the lonely forest, these bold words.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
