That fancy not a hand may slay

The monarch of the giants, screened

From mortal blow of God and fiend.

Sugríva still thy death may be:

No Yaksha, fiend, or God is he,

And Ráma from a woman springs,

The mortal seed of mortal kings.

O think how Báli fell subdued;

Think on thy slaughtered multitude.

Respect those brave and strong allies;
