Kishkindha Kaanda - Sarga 63
In this Sarga, Sampāti tells the Vānaras how he was persuaded by Niṡākara to hold on to his life and that he has been waiting to see the Vānaras.
While Sampāti speaks thus, he regains his wings, vigor and strength, and becomes happy like he never was before. He cites his gaining of the wings as a portent for the success of the Vānaras in their mission.
The Vānaras, feeling very happy, set themselves to search for Seetā.
