5.19.7

na janma nūnaṃ mahato na saubhagaṃ na vāṅ na buddhir nākṛtis toṣa-hetuḥ /
tair yad visṛṣṭān api no vanaukasaś cakāra sakhye bata lakṣmaṇāgrajaḥ //

7. "Indeed neither birth (in a noble family), nor personal beauty, or skill in speech, nor a bright intellect, nor a fine form pleased the great Rama, the elder brother of Lakshmana; for He admitted to his friendship us who are wild creatures (monkeys), destitute of all those qualifications.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
