24 to 31.Sarana
told Ravana he who knew
the earlier enmity between
elephants and
monkeys roamed on the shores
of ganges frightening the
elephants, whom
you see resembles the cloud
propelled by the wind,
as
also the
red dust raised by very
capable monkeys scattered all
round by
the wind
and with a troop of
agile monkeys, he is Pramathi
by name, a
commander who
is followed by ten crores
of mighty, roaring monkeys
proud of
the virility and prowess
and he is the leader
of those powerful
monkeys; difficult
to resist; commander of
troops; a leader; lives
in caves
in mountains;
leader of monkey troops;
foremost of monkeys; while
moving on
foot he battles wild elephants
and uproots trees; taking
abode
on Mount
Usirabija on the banks
of ganges equal to Mount
Mandara, he
revels there
as Indra does in heaven.
