Bhīma–Hanūmān Dialogue on Yugas (युगवर्णनम्)
रामपत्नीकृते येन शतयोजनविस्तृत: । सागर: प्लवगेन्द्रेण क्रमेणैकेन लड्घित:,वे वानरश्रेष्ठ हनुमान् श्रीरामचन्द्रजीकी पत्नी सीताजीकी खोज करनेके लिये सौ योजन विस्तृत समुद्रको एक ही छलाँगमें लाँध गये थे
rāmapatnīkṛte yena śatayojanavistṛtaḥ | sāgaraḥ plavagendreṇa krameṇaikena laṅghitaḥ ||
ビーマは言った。「ラーマの妃シーターのために、猿の王は百ヨージャナに広がる大海をただ一跳びで越えた。猿の中の最上よ、それこそがハヌマーンである。」
