Ravana falls

Valmiki · Yuddha Kanda
6.101.6–6.111.104 (CrEd 6.89.1–6.99.44)

Lakshmana, struck down, is revived with the herb from the mountain, and Indra sends Rama his chariot with Matali to drive it. The duel runs on until Matali reminds Rama of Brahma's weapon, and Ravana falls. When Vibhishana will not give his brother the last rites, Rama tells him that enmity ends with death.
