English Meaning
Addressing there all those counsellors, that afflictor of the world—the crooked and highly powerful lord of the Rākşasas, Rāvaņa, making his court resound, running down (Rāma's) crossing the main, as well as his vigour, strength and manhood, said to them.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
