- **Language:** English

### [3.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.campu.ramayana.ramayanacampu~en-mt.3.23)

Or is it rather that, his mind confounded by the deceit of the flesh-eater, indifference has arisen in the descendant of Kakutstha?  
Not only did that evil-souled one steal me away,  
he also stole Rāma’s innate compassion;  
if this were not so, would he, affectionate to those seeking his refuge,  
the peerless hero of the universe, remain silent? (23)”
