3.264.73

yāvadabhyāgatā raudrāḥ piśācyastāḥ sudāruṇāḥ |
dadṛśustāṃ trijaṭayā sahāsīnāṃ yathā purā || 73 ||

O lady, thy husband will fill the whole earth with his fame. I also saw Lakshmana, consuming all directions (with his arrows) and ascending on a heap of bones and drinking thereon honey and rice boiled in milk. And thou, O lady, hast been beheld by me running towards a northernly direction, weeping and covered with blood and protected by a tiger! And, O princess of Videha, soon wilt thou find happiness, being united, O Sita, with thy lord, that descendant of Raghu accompanied by his brother!' Hearing these words of Trijata, that girl with eyes like those of a young gazelle, once more began to entertain hopes of a union with her lord. And when at last those fierce and cruel Pisacha guards came back, they saw her sitting with Trijata as before."

Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
