On terrace, dome, and battlement:
Then with a light and rapid tread
Prahasta's[807] home he visited,
And Kumbhakarṇa's[808] courtyard where
A cloudy pile rose high in air;
And, wandering o'er the hill, explored
The garden of each Rákshas lord.
Each court and grove he wandered through,
Then nigh to Rávaṇ's palace drew.
She-demons watched it foul of face,
