English Meaning
Other Rākşasas having gigantic bodies and skilled in various arms, countless high-souled heroes—have also been brought down. These brothers were formerly bound by my son Indrajit of renowned strength and prowess with terrific shafts, obtained as boons. And I do not know by what power or superhuman virtue stupefying energy did those brothers, Rāma and Lakşmaņa-liberate themselves from those dreadful bonds, which could be loosed neither by celestials nor the highly powerful Asuras combined Yaksas, Gandharvas and Pannagas.
