English Translation
"When the distressed, anguished Surpanakha met Ravana who makes the world weep, he was seated in the midst of his ministers. She addressed him these harsh words:
Note: Surpanakha points out the flaws in Ravana's rule-- praises Rama's abilities-- describes the qualities of a good king."
