निमित्तानि च घोराणि दृश्यन्तेऽद्य बहूनि च। इत्येवं चिन्तयन् रामः श्रुत्वा गोमायुनिःस्वनम् ॥ निवर्तमानस्त्वरितो जगामाश्रममात्मवान्।

English Meaning
And many and dreadful are the omens I see (around me). Thus reflecting as he heard the howlings of the jackals, the self-possessed Rāma with hasty steps returned to the asylum.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
