5.2.45

rāvaṇasya purīṃ rātrau praviśya sudurāsadām
vicinvan bhavanaṃ sarvaṃ drakṣyāmi janakātmajām

When the bright sun had left the skies
The Vánar dwarfed his mighty size,
And, in the straitest bounds restrained,
The bigness of a cat retained.
Then, when the moon's soft light was spread,
Within the city's walls he sped.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1870, The Rámáyan of Válmíki, translated into English verse
