50 passagesस जित्वा धनदं राम भ्रातरं राक्षसाधिपः । महासेनप्रसूतिं तद्ययौ शरवणं महत् ।। ७.१६.१ ।।
Having conquered Dhanada, O Rāma, his brother, the lord of the demons then went to the great Śaravaṇa, the birthplace of Mahāsena.
अथापश्यदृशग्रीवो रौक्मं शरवणं महत् । गभस्तिजालसंवीतं द्वितीयमिव भास्करम् ।। ७.१६.२ ।।
Then the form “दृशग्रीवो” is textually unclear after “अथापश्यत्.” If it is intended to represent “दशग्रीवः,” Daśagrīva saw a great golden reed forest, enveloped in a network of rays, like a second sun.
स पर्वतं समारुह्य कञ्चिद्रम्यवनान्तरम् । अपश्यत् पुष्पकं तत्र रामविष्टम्भितं तदा ।। ७.१६.३ ।।
He, having climbed a mountain with some delightful forest-interior, then saw there the Puṣpaka, stopped or immobilized by Rāma.
विष्टब्धं पुष्पकं दृष्ट्वा ह्यगमं कामागं कृतम् । अचिन्तयद्राक्षसेन्द्रः सचिवैस्तैः समावृतः ।। ७.१६.४ ।।
After seeing the Pushpaka immobilized, he reflected. The transmitted phrase “ह्यगमं कामागं कृतम्” is difficult to construe exactly; its certain sense appears to be that the vehicle had been made unable to go as desired. The lord of the rakshasas, surrounded by those ministers, considered this.
किन्निमित्तं चेच्छया मे नेदं गच्छति पुष्पकम् । पर्वतस्योपरिष्ठस्य कर्मेदं कस्यचिद्भवेत् ।। ७.१६.५ ।।
“For what reason does this Puṣpaka not go at my wish? This must be the doing of someone upon the top of the mountain.”
