THE RAMAYANA
Your husband indulges in righteous talk,
but he is crafty; he indulges in gentle
talk but he is cruel. You think him to be
of pure heart, and that is why you have
'been betrayed.
अपवाह्य स दुष्टात्मा भरतं तव बन्धुषु ।
काल्ये स्थापयिता रामं राज्ये निहतकण्टके ।
That evil-minded king, after sending
away Bharata to your relatives, is going, early
in the morning, to instal Rama in the
kingdom, thus rid of all obstacles."
मन्थराया वचः श्रुत्वा कैकेयी विस्मयान्विता ।
दत्त्वा त्वाभरणं तस्यै पुनरेवाब्रवीदिदः ॥
Hearing the words of Manthara and
presenting her with an ornament, Kaikeyi with
great wonder, addressed her again thus :
इदं तु मन्थरे मामाख्यासि परमं प्रियम् ।
रामे वा भरते वाऽहं विशेषं नोपलक्षये ॥
"O Manthara! What you now say is indeed
highly pleasing to me. I don't see any
distinction between Rama and Bharata.
धर्मशो गुरुमिर्दान्तः कृतशः सत्यवाक् शुचिः ।
रामो राशः सुतो ज्येष्ठो यौवराज्यमतोऽर्हति ॥
