2.288

The same through firmness, as in:
"When the king of monkeys was bewildered by the spear that sank into his chest, and with him myself too,
and when the monkeys were asleep or running away, and the enemy found an opening—
did you not hear the words uttered on the field of battle by the son of Sumitrā of mighty stature,
who held back the monkey warriors, saying: 'Do not fear!'?"

2.288.p1
