Ramayana In English Verse
I found this on "The Tree of MyLife" - the blog of Gopal Jiu Publications' Madhavananda Das. It's an excerpt from a translation of the Ramayana into English verse by a British/Christian missionary in India at the beginning of last century. An excerpt from the excerpt:
Then his true name and form demon Ravan displayed;
Sita, seeing and hearing, was deathly afraid;She replied, as she rallied her courage and will,
“You are doomed, demon ruler; you’re now well-nigh dead,
“Wretch! My husband is coming! Stand off and stand still!
“Like a rabbit that would with a lioness wed.”
