While wandering in the forest, where He accepted a life of hard- 
  ship, carrying His invincible bow and arrows in His hand, Lord 
  Rāmacandra deformed Rāvaṇa's sister, who was polluted with lusty 
  desires, by cutting off her nose and ears. He also killed her four- 
  teen thousand Rākṣasa friends, headed by Khara, Triśira and 
  Dūṣaṇa.
