AYODHYAKANDA
सुसंरब्धं तु सौमित्रिं लक्ष्मणं क्रोधमूर्च्छितम् ।
रामस्तु परिसान्
Pacifying Lakshmana, the son of
Sumitra, who was agitated and beside
himself with anger, Rama spoke to him
these words :
किमत्र धनुषा कार्यमसिना वा सचर्मणा ।
महेष्वासे महाप्राज्ञे भरते स्वयमागते ॥
"What can be done in this matter by
the bow or the sword or the shield, when
the powerfully armed and highly wise
Bharata has himself come here?
पितुस्सत्यं प्रतिश्रुत्य हत्वा भरतमागतम् ।
किं करिष्यामि राज्येन सापवादेन लक्ष्मण ॥
Having promised to keep true my
father's word and after killing Bharata
who has arrived, what am I to do, O
Lakshmana, with the kingdom, with a
stain attached to it ?
