Shouts of loud triumph as he reeled.

But strength returning nerved his frame:

His eyeballs flashed with fiercer flame.

No living creature might resist

That blow of his tremendous fist

Which fell upon Hanúmán's flank:

And to the ground the Vánar sank,

No sign of life his body showed:

And Rávaṇ in his chariot rode

At Níla; and his arrowy rain
