The 9 degrees below zero fahrenheit temperature in Ann Arbor seems to
inspire me with Sanskrit verses.

Rāvaṇa's continued response:

दशकण्ठो महाबाहुरहं लङ्काधिपो बली ।

भङ्क्ष्यामि राममशकं कराङ्गुल्या रणे क्षणात् ।।

मा चिन्तां कुरु वैदेहि ममैव त्वं भविष्यसि ।

रणे हतो यदा रामोऽचिराद्यास्यति दुर्गतिम् ।।
