In the revered Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Yuddha Kāṇḍa, this is the twenty-second canto. Then the best of the Raghus spoke a harsh word to the ocean: “Today I shall dry you up, great ocean, together with the nether regions.”
“O ocean, whose waters have been scorched by arrows and who have been utterly dried up, with your living beings slain by me, great dust arises.” The transmitted verse states this as a continuation of Rama's threat; its exact syntactic relation to the preceding sentence is compressed, but its certain imagery is of an arrow-scorched, dried ocean, its beings slain, and great dust arising.
