ARANYAKANDA

O darling, two yojanas from here, there
is a beautiful spot well known as Pancha-
vati which abounds in roots, fruits, water
and various animals. Going thither and
making your abode there with the help
of Lakshmana, you will live happily, ful-
filling your father's command exactly.
तीर्णप्रतिज्ञः काकुत्स्थ सुखं राज्ये निवत्स्यसि ॥
Having fulfilled your promise, O Kakut-
stha, you will live happily in your king-
dom (as a king ). "
अगस्त्येनैवमुक्तस्तु रामस्सौमित्रिणा सह ।
सत्कृत्यामन्त्रयामास तमृषिं सत्यवादिनम् ॥
Being addressed thus by Agastya,
Rama along with Lakshmana, honoured
and took leave of that truth-speaking
sage.

अथ पञ्चवीं गच्छत्रन्तरा रघुनन्दनः ।
आससाद महाकाय गृधं भीमपराक्रमम् ।
स तं पितृसख' बुद्ध्वा पूजयामास राघवः ॥
Then, while going to Panchavati,
Rama, the delight of the Raghus, met on
the way a vulture of great body and terri-
ble prowess.
