Ravana gives his sister Shurpanakha to the Danava Vidyujjihva

Full sarga summary

Ravana gives his sister Shurpanakha to the Danava Vidyujjihva -- while hunting he meets Maya, who gladly weds his daughter Mandodari (born of the apsara Hema) to him and bestows the infallible spear that later strikes Lakshmana -- Ravana marries Kumbhakarna to Vajrajvala and Vibhishana to Sarama -- Mandodari bears a son whose thunderous birth-cry earns him the name Meghanada, later known as Indrajit.
