Varaali
I have a book, but it's written in a 14th century dialect which is really hard to follow (aside from the fact that my reading of Bengali is regrettably not fluent at all). As a kid, I once had a part of it - 'Mahiravan vadh' as one of the poems in my ICSE Bengali syllabus. I have on occasion opened it to specific chapters to see what it describes about something I'm looking for. However, to do a random search of something w/o knowing where it is would take forever.
One example - in Valmiki, it says - unbelievably - that after Sita went underground w/ Bhoomi Devi and Brahma pacified Rama, he asked him to listen to the remaining part of the Ramayan, and Kush/Luv resumed the recitation the next day. There is no mention of the 2 of them crying. In Krittivas, however, it is mentioned.
I once had opened a Tulsidas version, that had the original Hindi, the transliterated version, and then a translation of the passage. I do wish they did the same here - they do it for Valmiki, as can be seen in valmikiramayan.net (which again, excludes Uttarkand)
