"These hundred and hundred thousand black monkeys with a tail like that of a cow called Golangulas, endowed with black coloured face, fearsome and with extraordinary strength, watching the bridge constructed, surround Gavaksha the leader, who himself is a Golangula and of great speed. They intend to demolish Lanka with their vigour."
