सर्गः २४
In which Khara besets lone Rāma with every missile, Rāma stands firm as a mountain, and his arrows mow the demon ranks
Khara drives chariot straight at lone bowman Rāma — Demons surround Rāma showering maces swords spears — Rāma receives missiles like ocean receiving rivers — Bloodied Rāma stands unshaken like struck mountain — Rāma looses hundreds of deathlike arrows playfully — Arrows sever bows flags armor heads and thighs — Shattered survivors flee arrow-wounded to Khara — Dūṣaṇa rallies fugitives and charges Rāma again
