Kālidāsa's Raghuvaṃśa 12th Sarga - 43


जय श्रीराम!


मुखावयवलूनां तां नैरृता यत्पुरो दधुः । 
रामाभियायिनां तेषां तदेवाभूदमङ्गलम् ॥१२.४३॥  


Notes: Kālidāsa says, "The army of Rākṣasas in Janasthāna now went to attack Śrīrāma  with Śūrpanakhā, disfigured in her face, in the lead, which proved to be inauspicious for them."  

This was going to be the battle to end all battles as Śrīrāma would show them all what he was capable of.
