To avoid further encounters of this kind, Hanuman sings an incantation that puts the entire town to sleep.  Unhindered, he is now able to pass on foot through the streets on his way to Totsagan's palace, where he expects to find Nang Seeda.  Everywhere, in the streets, in the market and in their houses, the demons are stretched out asleep.  The Son of the Wind enters the palace without difficulty, passing one gate after another until he comes to Totsagan's inner sanctum, and there, in the sleeping chamber, there is the demon king himself, and in his arms a woman of the most exquisite beauty.  Enraged at the thought that Totsagan has been enjoying Phra Ram's wife, Hanuman growls and lifts his sword.  But just at this moment, from somewhere out of the silence a gecko raises its warning cluck.  Hanuman pauses, lowers his sword, and looks closer.  The woman is Nang Monto, he sees now, the demon's legitimate wife.

The monkey continues the search for Nang Seeda, growing more and more impatient as the time passes.  Having drawn a blank everywhere, he returns to the hermit's but and asks Nart where he might find Phra Ram's queen.

"If you were not such an impatient monkey and didn't have such a high opinion of yourself, I might have told you where to find Nang Seeda in the first place," says Nart.  "As it happens, she is being kept in Totsagan's park, just outside the city walls."

Pausing only long enough to thank the hermit, Hanuman sweeps up into the air.  He quickly finds the park.  Changing himself into a common monkey once more, he swings through the trees until he comes upon Nang Seeda.
