RAAVANA CALLS A COUNCIL AGAIN |
|
|
Vibheeshana,
Suka, Prahasta and others bowed before the king and sat in their respective places.
Devoted officers thronged the hall, all brave and efficient and waiting to fulfil the
commands of their king.
The air was heavy with rich perfume. The assembly equalled Indra's in splendour and
everyone felt that momentous decisions were to be taken. Raavana broke the hushed
expectant silence of the great assembly in a voice deep and resonant as thunder. He said:
"You are strong, brave and skilled in the arts of peace and war. You can find a way
out of every difficulty. Never so far has your advice miscarried. And so, once again, I
seek your counsel. You know well what I have done. I have brought here Seeta who was
living in the Dandaka forest. My desire for her so entirely possesses me that sending her
back is to me unthinkable. |
