Ramayana
त्रातारमिच्छते साध्वी भगवंस्त्रातुमर्हसि । तेषां तु वचनं श्रुत्वा बुद्ध्या निश्चित्य धर्मवित् । तपसा लब्धचक्षुष्मान् प्राद्रवद्यत्र मैथिली ॥ 7-49-7 ॥
The virtuous lady seeks a protector; reverend sir, you should protect her." Hearing their words, the knower of dharma resolved in his mind, and, having gained the eye of vision through his austerities, he hastened to where Maithili was.
