Let Saumitri, with Vibhīṣaṇa, be quickly relieved of the embedded shafts. And all the heroic bear and vānar troops—tree-fighters—and any others here who are wounded and pierced: let them all be treated with effort and restored to well-being.
"Let Vibheeshana and Saumithri be treated quickly. Let all the army of Bears and others who fought with trees, and the heroes be treated. Let all others who fought in the battlefield and wounded be also healed by your effort and make them happy."
