5.34.2

vānaro 'haṃ mahābhāge dūto rāmasya dhīmataḥ
rāmanāmāṅkitaṃ cedaṃ paśya devy aṅgulīyakam
samāśvasihi bhadraṃ te kṣīṇaduḥkhaphalā hy asi

'Receive,' he cried, 'this precious ring,
Sure token from thy lord the king:
The golden ring he wont to wear:
See, Ráma's name engraven there.'
Then, as she took the ring he showed,
The tears that spring of rapture flowed.
She seemed to touch the hand that sent
The dearly valued ornament,
And with her heart again at ease,
Replied in gentle words like these:
'O thou, whose soul no fears deter.
Wise, brave, and faithful messenger!
And hast thou dared, o'er wave and foam,
To seek me in the giants' home!
In thee, true messenger, I find
The noblest of thy woodland kind.
Who couldst, unmoved by terror, brook
On Rávan, king of fiends, to look.
