मन्ये लक्ष्मण वैदेही राक्षसैः कामरूपिभिः।भित्वाभित्वा विभक्ता वा भक्षिता वा भविष्यति।।।।
manye lakṣmaṇa vaidēhī rākṣasaiḥ kāmarūpibhiḥ | bhitvābhitvā vibhaktā vā bhakṣitā vā bhaviṣyati || 3.64.41 ||
我担忧，拉克什马那，毗提希或已被能随意变形的罗刹撕裂——一再砍断，或被分割，甚至被吞噬。
O Lakshmana, Vaidehi might have been cut into pieces, and eaten up by the demons who can assume any form at their free will.
