Ramayana is an epic poem written by Romesh C. Dutt, which retells the story of the Hindu god Rama and his journey to rescue his wife Sita from the demon king Ravana. The book is divided into seven books, each of which tells a different part of the story. The first book introduces the main characters and the conflict, while the second book describes Rama’s exile and his encounter with the monkey king Hanuman. The third book focuses on the abduction of Sita and Rama’s efforts to rescue her, while the fourth book describes the battle between Rama and Ravana. The fifth book deals with the aftermath of the battle, while the sixth book describes Rama’s return to Ayodhya and his coronation as king. The final book concludes the story with Rama’s departure from the world and his ascension to heaven. The book is a classic of Hindu literature and is considered one of the most important works in the Indian literary canon.And my evil fates are vanquished and my race is sanctified, With the warlike race of Raghu thus in loving bonds allied, Sacrifice and rites auspicious we ordain with rising sun, Ere the evening’s darkness closes, happy nuptials shall be done!''This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
