サウミトリはヴィビーシャナとともに、刺さった矢を速やかに抜き取らせよ。また熊軍・ヴァーナラ軍のうち、樹を武器として戦う勇士たち、そしてここで戦う他の者で、矢に貫かれ傷を負う者がいるなら、皆ことごとく力を尽くして治療し、安らかに快復させよ。
"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."
