Valmiki Ramayana — Yuddha Kanda

Verse 77.21

व्यपेते तु जीवे निकुम्भस्य हृष्टा विनेदुः प्लवंगा दिश: सस्वनुश्च । बलं राक्षसानां भयं चाविवेश॥

vyapete tu jīve nikumbhasya hṛṣṭā vineduḥ plavaṃgā diśa: sasvanuśca | balaṃ rākṣasānāṃ bhayaṃ cāviveśa||

English Meaning

Nikumbha being deprived of his life, the monkeys began to shout-as if resounding all the quarters. And with it the whole earth moved and the abode of the celestials dropped down. And the Rākşasas-hosts were greatly terrified.
