Pure from all spot of earthly taint,

To Ráma, with delighted mind,

That noble host of spells consigned.

He taught the arms, whose lore is won

Hardly by Gods, to Raghu's son.

He muttered low the spell whose call

Summons those arms and rules them all

And, each in visible form and frame,

Before the monarch's son they came.

They stood and spoke in reverent guise
