जय श्रीराम!

राघवो रथमप्राप्तां तामाशां च सुरद्विषाम् ।
अर्धचन्द्रमुखैर्बाणैश्चिच्छेद कदलीसुखम् ॥१२.९६॥
Notes: Kālidāsa says, "Even before that deadly spiked Śataghnī reached Śrīrāma's chariot, Śrīrāma used a crescent-moon shape-tipped arrow and cut it down. Indeed, he destroyed that deadly weapon as easily as cutting down a banana plant! Simultaneously, he cut down any hopes of victory among the Rākṣasas, as they witnessed their hero's inability to deal with Śrīrāma!"
