183 - Encounter between Laksmana and Ravana
Chhands
sō brahma datta pracaṃḍa sakti anaṃta ura lāgī sahī.
paryō bīra bikala uṭhāva dasamukha atula bala mahimā rahī..
brahmāṃḍa bhavana birāja jākēṃ ēka sira jimi raja kanī.
tēhi caha uṭhāvana mūḍha rāvana jāna nahiṃ tribhuana dhanī..
Description
That fierce lance, the gift of Brahma, struck Lord Ananta (Laksmana) right in the breast and the hero dropped to the ground full of agony. The ten-headed monster tried to lift the Prince and carry him off, but the glory of the demon's matchless strength proved ineffective. How foolish it was on the part of Ravana to have sought to lift him on one of whose (thousand) heads rest all the spheres of the universe like a mere grain of sand. He little knew that he was no other than the Lord of the three spheres.
