Valmiki Ramayana 2.90.9

2.90.9

tām aśvagajasaṃpūrṇāṃ rathadhvajavibhūṣitām
śaśaṃsa senāṃ rāmāya vacanaṃ cedam abravīt

Lakshman in haste, the wood to view.
Climbed a high Sál that near him grew,
The forest all around he eyed,
First gazing on the eastern side.
Then northward when his eyes he bent
He saw a mighty armament
Of elephants, and cars, and horse,
And men on foot, a mingled force,
And banners waving in the breeze,
And spoke to Ráma words like these:
'Quick, quick, my lord, put out the fire,
Let Sítá to the cave retire.
