Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:
842. sPhItham padhAvani! thava snapanArdhramUrthE-

lIlOchitham raGhusuthasya shaKhyamAsan
yAthUni yasya valayEna vivEShtithAni
Oh Paaduka! When You were given the sacred bath as part of the
coronation, Your form with so many gems emanated rays in such an
array that it extended all around to the shores of the ocean, as if a
large net were laid over. The Rakshasas fell within Your ray-gamut.
Then it was a mere sportive hit to aim arrows to kill the Rakshasas.
That Rama achieved.
(The credit goes to the Paaduka in the manner of annihilation of the
Rakshasas. Paaduka-pattabhisheka achieved, at the very moment, the
destruction of all bad elements. The pretext of Rama going and
throwing his arrows was only a mere pretext.)
Namo Narayana,
SriMuralidhara Dasan
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):

SlOkam 842
1) UthamUr Swamy 's anubhavam: Swamy Desikan describes
the wide envelope of the rays emanating from the gems adorning
the PaadhukAs as an expansive net to capture the rAkshasAs.
He says: " Your wet form after Your sacred bath with their spreading
envelope of rays generated by Your gems appear like a vast and
round fish net to catch the fish of evil rAkshasAs , the target of
Lord RaamachandrA's hunt.
2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! There was
the time , when Your PattAbhishEkam took place . At that time ,
the limitless radiance from Your gem stones spread far and wide
and encircled the world like an extended fish net . In to that net
were captured the RaakshasAs , who became fit objects for hunt
by Your Lord.
3) Oh PaadhukE (PadhAvani) ! After the sacred bath , Your surface
is wet still ( snapana aardhra Moorthy). The expansive and dense rays
from Your gems have spread far and wide all the way from one ocean
to the other in this world( snapana aardhara moorthE: Tava spheetham
MaNi rasmi jAlam aasAgaram tatham abhUth). Through the envelope of
that dense net , Your Lord captures the RaakshasAs and makes them
target of His arrows during His hunt for them ( Yasya valayEna
vivEshithAni yaathUni Raghu-suthasya leelOchitham sakhyam
aasan)....(V.S) .
