स्वयं विराधेन हि मृत्युरात्मनः प्रसह्य रामेण यथार्थमीप्सितः | निवेदितः काननचारिणा स्वयं न मे वधः शस्त्रकृतो भवेदिति || ३-४-३१
Viradha deliberately wanted to be killed by Rama. The forestranger ( Viradha ) himself revealed that it was not possible to kill him with weapons and asked Rama to bury him in a pit. [3-4-31]
Rama and Lakshmana were happy to consign Viradha's body to the pit after killing him. They filled the pit with rocks in the great forest without fear. [3-4-33]
With Viradha killed, they, accompanied by Sita, wandered happily in the dense forest, carrying their brilliant bows adorned with molten gold. They looked like Moon and Sun shining in the sky. [3-4-34]
