Made master of the means of ill.

Then spake the lord of Lanká's isle:

“Come, Sítá with thine arts beguile.

With magic skill and deftest care

A head like Ráma's own prepare.

To Janak's daughter will we show.”

He ceased: Vidyujjihva obeyed,

And wondrous magic skill displayed;

And Rávaṇ for the art he showed
