- 'O vanara you have told me that Rama has his mind always fixed on me, not on others and you have also said that he is sad. It is like offering me poison mixed with nectar. [5-37-2]
विधिर्नूनमसंहार्यः प्राणिनां प्लवगोत्तम | सौमित्रिं मां च रामं च व्यसनै: पश्य मोहितान् || ५-३७-४
'O best of vanaras surely it is not possible for living beings to overcome destiny. You see how Sri Rama, Saumitri, and my own self are all afflicted with grief. [5-37-4]
