Saling berdekatan—Hanumān tidak jauh daripada yang lain—Gaja, Gavākṣa, Gavaya, Śarabha, Gandhamādana, Mainda, Dvivida, Suṣeṇa, Jāmbavān, Nala, Aṅgada sang putera mahkota, dan Tārā si pengembara rimba, menjejaki arah selatan melalui negeri-negeri yang dilingkungi jalinan gunung-ganang. Ketika mereka menyelidik, mereka terlihat sebuah mulut gua yang terbuka: gua sukar ditembusi bernama Ṛkṣabila, dijaga oleh seorang raksasa (dānava).
While searching here and there in the cave, the strong and powerful monkeys discovered a woman not far from there.
