THE RAMAYANA
अथ रामो मुहूर्तेन लब्धसंज्ञं महीपतिम् ।
उवाच प्राञ्जलिर्भूत्वा शोकार्णवपरिप्लुतम् ॥
Then Rama, with folded hands, said to
the king, who became conscious after a
while and who was being tossed about in
the ocean of sorrow:
आपृच्छे त्वां महाराज सर्वेषामीश्वरोऽसि नः ।
प्रस्थितं दण्डकारण्यं पश्य त्वं कुशलेन माम् ॥
66
"O great king, I crave your leave.
You are the lord of us all. Look
benignly on me who am bound for the
Dandaka forest.
लक्ष्मण चानुजानीहि सीता चान्वेति मां वनम् ।
कारणैर्बहुभिस्तथ्यैर्वार्यमाणौ न चेच्छतः ॥
अनुनानी हि सर्वान्नः शोकमुत्सृज्य मानद ।
लक्ष्मणं मां च सीतां च प्रजापतिरिव प्रजाः ॥
Permit Lakshmana (to go) also. Sita
too follows me to the forest. Though
dissauded by many cogent pleas, they
do not desire (to be left behind). O foun-
tain of honour, leaving off sorrow, give
permission to all of us, Lakshmana, Sita
and myself, as Prajapati did to his sons.
