ശ്രീ രാമ സ്തുതിഃ (നാരദ കൃതമ്)

Ten verses spoken by Narada, and their manner is unlike anything else in this cluster: long compounds locked into internal rhyme, so that each line chimes two or three times before it ends, and every verse closes on the same words. Sita's delight, the true and the eternal, king Rama, the dark cloud; the killer of many demons, the bearer of the bow, the support of the people, the crusher of Vali, the binder of the ocean, the doer of many wonders. The last verse steps outside the hymn to address a king and to say who made it and how much of it: with nine verses I have fashioned this new and lovely thing that takes away the sins of the earth.
