## The Eighteenth Chapter

This is the story of the birth of the great Sri Sail. Now listen to the story of Vayu, the ornament of Magadha. ||1||

Vayu, as swift as the wind, went to Ravana and, having received his command, engaged in battle with Varuna in the midst of a battlefield filled with various weapons. ||2||

After fighting for a long time, Varuna was defeated and captured by Vayu. Khar-Dushan had been captured by Varuna earlier, so he was released. Vayu took Varuna to Ravana and made a treaty with him, making him subservient to Ravana. Ravana greatly honored Vayu. ||3, 4||

Then, with Ravana's permission, Vayu, carrying Kanta in his heart, quickly returned to his city with the great ministers. ||5||

Vayu entered the city, which was adorned with brilliant flags, arches, and garlands, and was welcomed by the citizens, who were adorned with the finest ornaments. ||6||

Then, leaving his work unfinished, Vayu went towards his palace, where he was greeted by a group of city women standing in the windows, who were overjoyed to see him. ||7||

Then, Vayu entered the palace, honored by the elders and welcomed by his relatives with auspicious words. ||8||

There, he paid his respects to the elders and was greeted by others. He sat in the assembly hall for a while, engaging in pleasant conversation. ||9||

Then, filled with anxiety, he ascended to Anjana's palace. At that time, he was filled with his former emotions and was accompanied only by his laughing friend. ||10||

Seeing the palace devoid of his beloved, his mind, like a lifeless body, fell to the ground in an instant. ||11||

He said to his laughing friend, "Friend, what is this? Where is Anjana, the beautiful one with lotus eyes?" ||12||
