By the two brothers took their stand,

Sugríva, offspring of the Sun

And Báli, Indra's mighty one.

They both endowed with Garuḍ's might,

And skilled in all the arts of fight,

Wandered in arms the forest through,

And lions, snakes, and tigers, slew.

But every monkey, ape, and bear

Ever was Báli's special care;

With his vast strength and mighty arm
