Verse 21·VR 4.46.21

इदानीम् मे स्मृतम् राजन् यथा वाली हरीश्वरः || ४-४६-२१ मतंगेन तदा शप्तो हि अस्मिन् आश्रम मण्डले | प्रविशेत् यदि वै वाली मूर्धा अस्य शतधा भवेत् || ४-४६-२२ तत्र वासः सुखो अस्माकम् निर्उद्विग्नो भविष्यति |

Translation

" 'Oh, king Sugreeva, now I remember how Sage Matanga cursed the king of monkeys Vali at that time. If Vali really enters the fringes of the hermitage of Sage Matanga, Vali's head gets splintered in hundred ways. Hence dwelling in sage Matanga's hermitage will be peaceful and imperturbable for us.' Thus Hanuma spoke to me. [4-46-21b, 22, 23a]
