ततः शुभमतिः प्राज्ञो भ्रातुः प्रियहिते रतः। लक्ष्मणः प्रतिसंरब्धो जगाम भवनं कपेः॥ शक्रबाणासनप्रख्यं धनुः कालान्तकोपमम्। प्रगृह्य गिरिशृङ्गाभं मन्दरः सानुमानिव॥
tataḥ śubhamatiḥ prājño bhrātuḥ priyahite rataḥ| lakṣmaṇaḥ pratisaṃrabdho jagāma bhavanaṃ kapeḥ|| śakrabāṇāsanaprakhyaṃ dhanuḥ kālāntakopamam| pragṛhya giriśṛṅgābhaṃ mandaraḥ sānumāniva||
English Meaning
Thereupon the highly intelligent Lakşmaņa of right understanding, and ever intent upon the welfare of his brother, taking up a bow like to Indra's, resembling the summit of a hill and terrible as Death himself, entered, wrought up with ire, the abode of the king of monkeys like the hill Mandāra.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
