Because they had gone to those two, Halachakra Dharas, and disturbed them, they were heroes even among the gods, and they were not conquerable, the best of men. ||136|| As long as there is no carelessness in those two Kumaris, let us quickly go and think about protection. ||137|| Then, with her daughters-in-law, Sita, riding in a celestial chariot, went towards where her two sons, endowed with the strength of Vajra, had gone. ||138||
Then, Gautam Swami says, "O Shrenik! Who is capable of describing the full Lakshmi of Rama and Lakshmana? Therefore, listen to this brief description." ||139|| Surrounded by a vast ocean of chariots, horses, elephants, and foot soldiers, Rama and Lakshmana emerged, as if bearing anger. ||140|| Shatrughna, the powerful one, riding in a chariot drawn by horses, with his chest adorned with garlands, emerged, his mind set on war. ||141|| Just as the Harinakeshi god is the leader of the army, so too, Mani, with his face like that of Krtaanta, was the leader of all the armies. ||142|| His immeasurable army, with its shadow created by bows and arrows, and adorned with great brilliance, was increasing his prowess. ||143|| His great chariot, with a central pillar resembling a divine palace, and a flag of Yama, was shining, difficult to look at for the enemy army. ||144|| Behind Krtaanta, there was Trimurdha, then Agnishikha, then Singhavikrama, then Dirghabahu, then Singhodara, Sumeru, the powerful Balikhilya, the extremely angry Raudrabhuti, Sharabha, Syandana, the angry Vanakarna, Maridatta, who loved war, and Mrigendravahan, with his mind filled with intoxication, and other five thousand vassals emerged. All these vassals were bearing darkness in the form of various weapons, and groups of charanas were singing the praises of their countless virtues. ||145-148|| In the same way, the many ranks of the Kumaris, who were accompanied by deceitful armies, who had cast their gaze for a moment upon the weapons that had proven their worth, whose enthusiasm was increasing due to the joy of war, who were devoted to their lord, who were powerful, who were swift, and who had shaken the earth, also emerged. ||149-150|| Some of them were on chariots, some were on tall elephants, some were like dense clouds of arrows, and others were on horses, like waves of a great ocean. ||151||
