Mandodari

"Ravan In that land of the silent and desolate I wandered not all alone, For beside me there moved a beautiful one, whom I loved and called my own; And yet altho' she appeared as one I had known from eternity, It was not this my magnanimous queen the dusky Mandodari: She seemed as tho' she were one with whom, in some long anterior birth, Hundreds of thousands of years before, I had been the companion on earth."
