Indra–Vṛtra Conflict and the Adversaries’ Tapas-Targeting Counsel
कौतूहलान्वितो रामस्त्वयोध्यामगमत् पुनः । धनुरादाय तद् दिव्यं क्षत्रियाणां निबर्हणम्,अनायास ही महान् कर्म करनेवाले दशरथकुमार श्रीरामका भारी पराक्रम सुनकर भृगु तथा ऋचीकके वंशज रेणुकानन्दन परशुराम उन्हें देखनेके लिये उत्सुक हो क्षत्रियसंहारक दिव्य धनुष लिये अयोध्यामें आये
kautūhalānvitō rāmas tvayodhyām agamat punaḥ | dhanur ādāya tad divyaṁ kṣatriyāṇāṁ nibarhaṇam |
