50 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे युद्धकाण्डे अष्टपञ्चाशः सर्गः ॥६-५८॥ ततः प्रहस्तं निर्यान्तं दृष्ट्वा रणकृतोद्यमम्। उवाच सस्मितं रामो विभीषणमरिंदमः॥ १॥
In the glorious Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Yuddhakāṇḍa, the fifty-eighth canto. Then, seeing Prahasta going forth, prepared for battle, Rāma, the subduer of foes, spoke with a smile to Vibhīṣaṇa.
क एष सुमहाकायो बलेन महता वृतः। आगच्छति महावेगः किंरूपबलपौरुषः॥ २॥
Who is this one of such a very large body, surrounded by a great force, coming with immense speed? Of what sort are his form, strength, and valor?
आचक्ष्व मे महाबाहो वीर्यवन्तं निशाचरम्। राघवस्य वचः श्रुत्वा प्रत्युवाच विभीषणः॥ ३॥
Tell me, O mighty-armed one, about the powerful night-rover. Having heard Rāghava’s words, Vibhīṣaṇa replied:
एष सेनापतिस्तस्य प्रहस्तो नाम राक्षसः। लङ्कायां राक्षसेन्द्रस्य त्रिभागबलसंवृतः। वीर्यवानस्त्रविच्छूरः सुप्रख्यातपराक्रमः॥ ४॥
This is his commander, the Rākṣasa named Prahasta. In Laṅkā, belonging to the lord of the Rākṣasas, he is surrounded by a third part of the army, mighty, skilled in missile-weapons, and renowned for valor.
ततः प्रहस्तं निर्यान्तं भीमं भीमपराक्रमम्। गर्जन्तं सुमहाकायं राक्षसैरभिसंवृतम्॥ ५॥
Then they saw Prahasta as he marched out: terrifying, of terrible valor, roaring, of exceedingly विशाल body, and surrounded by rākṣasas.
