Muli, ang marunong at may mabuting layon na si Lakṣmaṇa, tapat sa kapakanan ng kaniyang kapatid, ay nagpunta—puspos ng matibay na pasiya—sa tahanan ni Sugrīva. Hawak ang busog na tulad ng kay Indra, kakila-kilabot gaya ng poot sa wakas ng panahon, at taas-bundok na wari’y tuktok—gaya ng Mandara na may mga dalisdis—siya’y sumulong.
