tasya bāhusahasreṇa babhūva jyātalasvanaḥ //
That king once tied up the valiant Râvaṇa and stunned him with his five arrows in his own kingdom, Lanka. After conquering him he brought and confined Râvaṇa in his capital—Mâhiṣmatîpurî when Pulastya went and solicited Arjuna to release his son Râvaṇa which he did.—37-39.
The sound of his thousand arms resembled the echo of clouds that arise at the close of Yuga; but it is very strange, that his thundering arms were cut down by Parasurâma, the descendant of Bhṛigu.—39-40.
