त्रिजटा नाम राच्छसी एका। राम चरन रति निपुन बिबेका॥ सबन्हौ बोलि सुनाएसि सपना। सीतहि सेइ करहु हित अपना॥ सपनें बानर लंका जारी। जातुधान सेना सब मारी॥ खर आरूढ़ नगन दससीसा। मुंडित सिर खंडित भुज बीसा॥ एहि बिधि सो दच्छिन दिसि जाई। लंका मनहुँ बिभीषन पाई॥ नगर फिरी रघुबीर दोहाई। तब प्रभु सीता बोलि पठाई॥ यह सपना में कहउँ पुकारी। होइहि सत्य गएँ दिन चारी॥ तासु बचन सुनि ते सब डरीं। जनकसुता के चरनन्हि परीं॥

जहँ तहँ गईं सकल तब सीता कर मन सोच। मास दिवस बीतें मोहि मारिहि निसिचर पोच॥11॥

MeaningThere was a demoness named Trijata, skilled in wisdom and devoted to Rama's feet. She called all (the demonesses) and told them a dream: "Serve Sita and do your own good. In my dream a monkey burned Lanka and slew all the demon army; the Ten-headed one rode a donkey, naked, his head shaved, his twenty arms cut off; thus he went toward the south, as though Vibhishana had won Lanka. Round the city (Vibhishana) proclaimed Raghuvira's triumph; then the Lord sent for Sita. This dream I declare aloud — it will come true after four days." Hearing her words they were all frightened and fell at Janaki's feet. When all had gone here and there, Sita's mind grieved: "After a month has passed, the vile demon will slay me."
