सन्धानकारणं तेजो यगभूत्तेऽकृथास्तथा । |
Demons are slain by the enemies (and) you have squandered the treasures.
18. You have so acted that the means of peace, your lustre, has been dimmed, since you have depleted along with the army (your) valour and treasury."
19. Ravana got angry and immediately addressed (these) words to Kumbhakarna : Why did you condemn me, (but) did not enkindle your own heroism ?
20. Force me not to accept good sayings; do not hesitate to march out in the battle; do not taunt me about mistakes already committed; do not demur to carry out the highest interest.”
21. Thereafter Kumbhakarna thundered and caused other warriors to return (to fight), took up mighty missiles and hastily went out of the city.
22. He scratched, as it were, the sky with his head, pervaded the sky with his huge frame, broke as though the earth with his (two) feet and burnt the enemies as if with his glance.
