SEETA IN THE ASOKA PARK

It is to do her service that I crossed the sea, the lord of rivers, and am now here in Lanka. All this seems much-but verily, if for her sake Raama should transform or even destroy the universe, I would say from my soul-It is well done! She is worth it all and more!"

And again Hanumaan's heart crossed the sea back and dwelt on Raama far away.

Just then, as off the clear surface of a lake a swan might glide, so in the blue sky the moon swam into sight and shone brightly as if on purpose to help the son of Vaayu.

Peering between the leaves and not knowing what to do, Hanumaan took another long look at the face of Seeta, a face that disclosed a sea of care like a heavily-laden ship caught in a storm. The Raakshasis who guarded her were intolerably ugly. One had only one eye, another only one car. Some were without ears and some without noses. Some had Doses turned steeply upward. Some were bald, while some had done their hair in grotesque styles.
