THE RAMAYANA
कृतस्वस्त्यययनं मात्रा पित्रा दशरथेन च ।
पुरोधसा बसिष्ठेन मङ्गलैरभिमन्त्रितम् ॥
स पुत्रं मूयुपाघ्राय राजा दशरथः प्रियम् ।
ददौ कुशिकपुत्राय सुप्रीतेनान्तरात्मना ॥
When the evil-averting and good-in-
voking rites had been duly performed for
Rama by his mother and his father, and
he had been protected and blessed by
Vasishtha by means of mantras, King
Dasaratha smelt his dear son on the head
and with a heart full of satisfaction handed
him over to Visvamitra.
विश्वामित्रो ययावग्रे ततो रामो महायशाः ।
काकपक्षधरो धन्वी तं च सौमित्रिरन्वगात् ॥
First went Viswamitra; then Rama of
great fame, with sidelocks, and carrying
his bow ; and after him went Lakshmana.
अध्यर्धयोजनं गत्वा सरय्वा दक्षिणे तटे ।
रामेति मधुरां वाणीं विश्वामित्रोऽभ्यभाषत ॥
After proceeding a yojana and a half
on the southern bank of the Sarayu,
Viswamitra uttered the sweet word 'Rama'.
