Rassemble sans délai tous les vānara sur la terre : ceux qui demeurent sur les sommets de Mahendra, de l’Himavat, du Vindhya et du Kailāsa ; sur Mandara et sur la cime blanche parmi les cinq montagnes ; ceux qui se tiennent sur les monts étincelants au bord de l’océan et dans la direction de l’Ouest ; ceux qui résident sur la montagne nommée Ādityabhavana, pareille aux nuées du crépuscule ; les chefs des singes réfugiés dans l’effrayant bois de Padmātāla ; ceux qui vivent au mont Añjana, sombres comme le nuage d’anjanā et forts comme des éléphants ; ceux à l’éclat d’or qui habitent les grottes de Manaḥśilā ; ceux près du Meru et ceux établis à Dhūmragiri ; ceux du grand Mahāruṇa, rouges comme le soleil naissant, buveurs de maireya et d’une vitesse redoutable ; et ceux qui se trouvent dans de vastes forêts parfumées, autour des agréables ermitages forestiers des ascètes. Fais venir promptement chaque groupe, par tous les moyens—conciliation, dons et autres—et envoie les vānara sans retard.
'Send for the monkeys residing at the five mountains of Mahendra, Himavan, Vindhya, Kailasa and the white-peaked mount Mandara; those monkeys residing on the western mountains, on the sea shore and on mount Udaya shining like the rising Sun; monkeys like dark clouds shining in the twilight Sun; those at the fierce Padmatala garden and those at the Anjana mountain who resemble dark clouds like collyriumand are as strong as elephants; those monkeys of golden complexion residing at the red arsenic mountain caves beside mount Meru; those on mount Meru and Dhumra who are of bright red colour like the rising Sun drinking liquor Maireya; the monkeys of terrific speed at mount Maharuna; those staying at the delightful hermitages in the forests, and those living on the ground all must be cajoled and persuaded to report at once.
