Kālidāsa's Raghuvaṃśa 12th Sarga - 86

1

 जय श्रीराम!




मातुलिस्तस्य माहेन्द्रमामुमोच तनुच्छदम् । 
यत्रोत्पलदलक्लैब्यम् अस्त्राण्यापुः सुरद्विषाम् ॥१२.८६॥


Notes: Kālidāsa says, "Indra's charioteer Matali respectfully compelled Śrīrāma to wear the divine armour that rendered all weapons hurled with striking force by the demons at Śrīrāma ineffectual like soft lotus flower petals."

जय श्रीराम!
