By the fact that you have stretched this bow, I have come to know that you are Vishnu, Lord of the gods, slayer of Madhu, Oh ! Imperishable one Oh ! Tormentor of enemies, Fare well. [1-76-17]
You are faithful to vows, oh ! Rama This arrow has no equal in prowess. It behoves of you to release it ( against me ). After its release I shall go to the excellent Mahendra mountain.' [1-76-20]
