Various individual combats take place between monkeys and demons. SugrÄ«va, at the bottom, wielding a tree, first kills VirūpÄká¹£a and then Mahodara, at the top, whose head he cuts off. Aṅgada meanwhile is advancing on MahÄpÄrÅ›va and eventually kills him. The leaders are held in reserve on each side.

Kumbhakará¹‡a is back on his chariot and is advancing with demons behind him, his battle standard marked with a snake. Rāma and his chief allies are holding a council, with many looking fearfully over the hill at the advancing Kumbhakará¹‡a. All the monkeys have fled before the mighty demon and one monkey, presumably Aṅgada with his golden armlets, is reproaching them and attempting to rally their spirits.

Indrajit advances in his chariot having created an illusory Sītā, whom he holds by the single long tress of her hair. He then cuts off her head and her body falls to the ground. Hanumān and the other monkeys, here SugrÄ«va and Aṅgada, are totally distraught but attack him. Then Hanumān goes to tell Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa of Sītā's apparent death. They look crushed by grief.

VibhÄ«á¹£aá¹‡a and Hanumān are battling with Indrajit, but then leave him to Lakṣmaṇa. The two hurl everything they can at each other. Lakṣmaṇa's arrows slay Indrajit's charioteer and pierce his horses, which are jumped on by the monkeys to force Indrajit to dismount. The two battle on, until finally Indrajit's head is severed from his body by Lakṣmaṇa's most fomidable arrow. Divine beings rain flowers down on Lakṣmaṇa. A calm and grave Rāma, seated with SugrÄ«va, Aṅgada and JÄmbavÄn, awaits the outcome of the battle.

Here Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa, with VibhÄ«á¹£aá¹‡a, SugrÄ«va and Aṅgada are seen attacking four or five important rÄká¹£asas. Indrajit, in the bottom right corner, makes a sacrifice to ensure invisibility with fire and a deer. His chariot with his elephant standard is outside. In an aerial chariot, at the top on the left, being now invisible (shown by being partly behind the horizon line), he aims his magic arrows at the monkeys and at Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa. Rāvaṇa looks on from a tower.

Add 15296 (2) f.49r, Rama, Laksmana and Sugriva are seated on a rocky eminence. Sugriva divides his vast forces into four and sends them out to search the four quarters for Sita. To each troop leader he describes the terrain that they will be encountering on their journey. Sugriva sends Hanuman, along with his nephew Angada and Jambavan, the king of the bears, to search the southern region, the most promising quarter, and, sure that the sagacious and mighty monkey Hanuman will locate Sita, Rama gives him his ring as a token that Hanuman is his messenger. Around them monkeys spring forth to the other three quarters.

Kumbha and Nikumbha fight with the monkey leaders. Rāma and the other leaders look on from the left. Aṅgada, whose eyelids have been cut off by Kumbha previously, is fighting with blood streaming down his face against a boar-headed demon. Kumbha's head is pierced with a dagger and Nikumbha appears to be falling with an arrow in his chest. On the right, a demon has picked up a monkey; another monkey is struggling with a demon and a third demon falls back with his head split open. Three animal-headed demons talk to Rāvaṇa, who appears at the jharokhā window of his palace above.

The result of the general assault has been inconclusive and the battle has continued long into the night. Aṅgada thought he had killed Indrajit, but the demon had just made himself invisible in his sky-chariot, and now has pierced Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa with his magic weapons. Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa lie on the battlefield, ensnared in these serpentine coils, while the monkeys give way to despair. VibhÄ«á¹£aá¹‡a consoles them as he knows that Rāma will not die from these weapons. Indrajit returns in triumph to his father Rāvaṇa, who rises from his seat to congratulate him. Rāvaṇa then makes Trijaá¹Ä, one of the female demons, take Sītā in his flying chariot over the battlefield to see her husband and his brother apparently lying slain.

Angered by the Ocean's non-cooperation, Rāma attacked it with all the weapons at his command and the boiling sea eventually spewed up the appalled Ocean god in person, who advised him that he could not part the waves for him but that he should tell the monkey engineer Nala, the son of the divine architect ViÅ›vakarma, to build a bridge across the sea to Laṅkā. For five days the monkeys then heaved great stones and trees into the ocean to construct a bridge a hundred leagues in length. It is now complete and the monkeys cross over the bridge, Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa again mounted on Hanumān and Aṅgada, while VibhÄ«á¹£aá¹‡a and his demons fly across above them. On the far side, demons look out from the walls of Laṅkā, while two monkeys spread out Rāma's tiger skin.

Add 15296 (2) f.68r, The monkeys have resolved to die by starving themselves to death on the shores of the southern ocean rather than return to face their king's wrath. They are seen by the wingless vulture Sampati, brother of the vulture king Jatayu, who had died trying to save Sita from the demon. Sampati had lost his wings through flying too near the sun. They tell him of Jatayu's death at the demon's hand. Sampati tellSitaem that he had seen the demon king Ravana in his aerial chariot abducting a woman, who was calling out constantly the name of Rama. The monkeys carry Sampati down from his cave in the mountain and he tells Angada and the others where Ravana has taken Sita. Ravana, he tells them, rules the kingdom of Lanka, a hundred leagues across the sea. The monkeys carry him to the shore of the ocean, where he performs the funeral rites for his brother.

Add 15296 (2) f.18r, Outside the palace, Sugriva and Bali buffet each other furiously with fists and nails and then tear up trees and rocks, but Bali is the stronger and slowly Sugriva is forced to give ground. When Rama sees that Sugriva is losing, he keeps his promise to assist his ally by aiming his deadly arrow into Bali's chest. Bali sinks dying to the ground and the exhausted Sugriva too falls down. Bali bitterly reproaches Rama for his treacherous action in basely and surreptitiously killing him when engaged in fighting another. But Rama tells him that for stealing his younger brother Sugriva's wife Rama, whom he should have regarded as a daughter-in-law, he deserves death. The earth and all that is in it belong to the Iksvaku race and Rama is doing his warrior duty by upholding the rule of law on behalf of his brother Bharata the king. Bali accepts his fate and commends his young son Angada to Rama's protection.
