RAAVANA as duly informed that Raama's Vaanara host surrounded Lanka like a tumultuous sea. In an angry mood he went up the tower of his mansion and surveyed the scene. On every side he saw Vaanara warriors who had armed themselves with trees and boulders. He wondered how he could destroy this vast invading force.

At the same time, Raama saw the City of Lanka guarded by the Raakshasas. He could see with his mind's eye the sad figure of Seeta held captive within those walls. He ordered an immediate assault.
