Shloka 226
हा सीते लक्ष्मणेत्येवं चुक्रोशार्तस्वरेण ह । श्रीरामचन्द्रजीके बाणसे आहत हो मरते समय मारीचने उनके ही स्वरमें “हा सीते, हा लक्ष्मण” कहकर आर्तनाद किया
hā sīte lakṣmaṇety evaṃ cukrośārtasvareṇa ha |
马尔坎德耶说道：被圣罗摩旃陀罗之箭射中，临死之际，摩利遮以哀痛之声，模仿罗摩本人的语调呼喊：“噫，悉多！噫，罗什曼那！” 此事昭示：欺诈能将信任与亲族之责化为利器，使慈悲与警觉反成道德的试炼。

The verse underscores the ethical danger of deception: by mimicking a trusted voice and invoking loved ones, a wrongdoer can manipulate dharmic impulses (care for family, readiness to help) into harmful action. It cautions that compassion must be paired with discernment.
As Mārīca is fatally struck by Rāma’s arrow, he deliberately cries out “O Sītā! O Lakṣmaṇa!” in an anguished tone resembling Rāma’s voice, intending to mislead Sītā and draw Lakṣmaṇa away—setting the stage for further calamity.
