O Lady, I heard here those rākṣasī women—cruel in conduct, dreadful in form, with most terrifying eyes and distorted faces—again and again speaking harsh words by Rāvaṇa’s command, while you, devoted to your husband as to a god, were being tormented in the Aśoka grove.
"I desire to kill all those Rakshasas who in the past have intimidated you indeed and whoever threatened you."
Dharma rejects cruelty and abuse of authority: Rāvaṇa’s command leads to repeated verbal violence, which is morally condemned by being explicitly remembered and named.
Hanumān recounts what he witnessed/heard in the Aśoka grove—Sītā’s torment and the rākṣasīs’ harsh speech under Rāvaṇa’s orders.
Hanumān’s empathy and moral indignation on behalf of Sītā, alongside his commitment to truthful testimony (satya).
