सौवर्णीं शिबिकां दिव्यामारोप्य क्षौमवाससम् || ६-१११-१०९ रावणं राक्षसाधिशमश्रुपूर्णमुखा द्विजाः | तूर्यघोषैश्च विविधैः स्तुवद्भिश्चाभिनन्दितम् || ६-१११-११० पताकाभिश्च चित्राभिः सुमनोभिश्च चित्रिताम् | उत्क्षिप्य शिबिकां तां तु विभीषणपुरोगमाः || ६-१११-१११ दक्षिणाभिमुखाः सर्वे गृह्य काष्ठानि भेजिरे |

Translation

Placing Ravana, the lord of demons, who was covered with linen, accompanied by blasts of various musical instruments as well as panegyrists singing his the Brahmanas (forming part of the demon's race, which was apparently divided into four classes, like human beings) stood around him with their faces filled in tears. Lifting up that palanquin, which had been decorated with colorful flags and flowers and taking up blocks of wood, all the demons for their part, with Vibhishana in front, proceeded with their face turned towards the south.
