Sugrīva's words break off at the command, and the verse carries across the sea in one movement.
Hanumān's leap the tradition paints at length: a hundred yojanas, a mountain under his feet, monsters in the water. Here — three words: tatāra hanumān abdhim, “Hanumān crossed the ocean”.
This brevity is no negligence. Our book is not the Rāmāyaṇa; it needs not the tale but its meaning, and it leaves the details to those who tell in detail.
But it is remarkable who is named. Of the whole army only Hanumān is named, and named now a second time — in the twentieth verse he was “the son of the Wind and the devotee”.
Because the work now being done is the work of a bhakta, and no one else will do it. It is not strength that carries across the ocean — the tradition says Hanumān did not even remember his strength until he was reminded of it. What carried him was that whose name he kept repeating.
The word maithilī — “the daughter of Mithilā” — is one of Sītā's names, from her native city, where Janaka reigned and where Rāma bent the bow.
