THE RAMAYANA
For the king is truth. The king is
Dharma and the upholder of nobility.
The king is mother and father. The king
is the benefactor of all men."
तेषां हि वचनं श्रुत्वा वसिष्ठः प्रत्युवाच ह ॥
Hearing their words, Vasishtha replied
thus :
यदसौ मातुलकुले पुरे राजगृहे सुखी ।
भरतो वसति भ्रात्रा शत्रुध्नेन समन्वितः ॥
तच्छीघ्रं जवना दूता गच्छन्तु त्वरितैर्हयैः ।
आनेतुं भ्रातरौ वीरौ किं समीक्षामहे वयम् ॥
"As Bharata along with his brother
Satrughna, lives happily in his uncle's
mansion in the town of Rajagriha let swift
messengers proceed quickly on fleet horses
to bring the two heroic brothers. What
else can we contemplate?"
वसिष्ठेनाभ्यनुज्ञाता दूतास्सन्त्वरिता ययुः ।
गिरिव्रजं पुरवरं शीघ्रमासेदुरञ्जसा ॥
Being enjoined by Vasishtha, the
messengers went with great expedition.
Quickly they reached Girivraja, the best
of cities.
