Sampathi the sharp beaked bird woke up with a start and called out stridently, " Who is it that talks of the death of may dear brother Jatayu? Those words like the clanging of fearful bells send tremors through my being. Tell me of the war between him and Ravana and tell me how Jatayu died". He then asked the Vanaras to help him down, as he could not fly. Though he looked weak and his voice was feeble the monkeys were wary, as they had heard his earlier plan to devour them! But Angada said that there would be no harm in bringing Sampathi down and that they might as well be food for him, instead of starving themselves to death! " This way we will die faster and go to heaven".
