He was on the point of bind- ing all the enemy forces with his magic tail, when Varuna chal- lenged him. While they were fighting, Rävana intervened and threatened Varuņa to send the way of Yama, Indra and others (8). Varuņa retorted and both fell upon each other. At this juncture Hanumat bound Varuna's sons. Receiving these sad news, Varuņa lost heart and Răvana captured him. Bhānukarņa brought there the whole of Varuna's harem crying piteously. Råvana denounced his action as unbecoming (11). Rävana married Varuna's daughter and returned to Lankā in great triumph. He honoured Hanumat. Sugriva and many others offered their daughters to Hanumat. Thus marrying eight thousand girls, he returned to his city. All other kings also were honoured.
