thousands of women
and come to you. "

18 to 22.After
that a rakshasi called
Durmukhi said these words
" To whom the sun
does not burn, for whom
the wind God blows gently,
are you going to accept
that person or not ?. Out
of fear of whom do
trees shower the flowers
and the clouds rain water,
to that Ravana are you
going to abide by his
wishes ?. Accept my
words or
else you would not live."
