Knowing her truly
for Simhika, the wise vanara
grew vast of body,
like a rain cloud in the monsoon.
She, seeing the great vanara’s
body growing,
stretched open her mouth,
wide as the underworld and the sky.
Then he saw
her huge and hideous mouth,
the measure of her body, the wise one,
and her vitals, the great vanara.
Into her gaping mouth
the vanara, diamond-hard of frame,
making himself small in a moment,
dropped, mighty as he was.
Sinking into her mouth
the siddhas and charanas saw him,
like the full moon
swallowed by Rahu at the moon’s change.
Then, tearing out her vitals
with his sharp nails, the vanara
sprang up with speed,
swift as thought.
Seeing Simhika slain
by the vanara, and fallen,
the beings who move in the sky
spoke to that bull among leapers.

He dropped into her gaping mouth,

Then, drawing in that body
that was like a mountain,
he returned to his own nature,
self-possessed, like one freed of delusion.
Wearing a fair form, now this, now that,
he reached the sea’s far shore,
his form past all others’ knowing,
himself in hand, his purpose weighed.
Then on a peak of Lamba, rich,
many-crested, down he came,
amid ketaka, uddalaka and coconut,
the great one, like a great mountain’s peak.
The sea, with its danavas and serpents,
he crossed by strength, garlanded with great waves;
and landing then on the great ocean’s shore,
he saw Lanka, like Amaravati.
Subtitle
He shrank to his own form,
came down on Lamba's peak
among the coconut palms,
