प्राप्तोऽहं स हि धर्मात्मा सुग्रीवः सख्यमिच्छति। तस्य मां सचिवं वित्तं वानरं पवनात्मजम्॥ भिक्षुरूपप्रतिच्छन्नं सुग्रीवपियकारणात्। ऋष्यमूकादिह प्राप्तं कामगं कामचारिणम्॥

English Meaning
That virtuous souled Sugrīva desires to make friends with you. And know me to be his counsellor-a monkey, the son of Pavana, ranging every where at my will, coming here, under the guise of a mendicant, from the mount Rsymuka, for the welfare of Sugriva.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
