Sundarakānda - Canto 38

Asked by Hanumān for a token, Sītā, narrates the episode of a crow, which occurred on the Citrakūta mountain, and asks Hanumān to repeat the story to Śrī Rāma by way of a token. She further sends her greetings both to Śrī Rāma and Laksmana, conveys her inquiry after their welfare and communicates to them her resolve to survive only for a month after the expiry of the time-limit prescribed by Rāvana; and last of all, she hands over to him her jewel for the head as a token.
