On Satrughna saying this, Raghava again said: Let this be so. Do you do my bidding. I shall install you on the graceful city of Madhu; or if you wish without and entrust Bharata with this task, O long-armed Heroic, and accomplished, you are combatant to found a city on the Yamună as well as flourishing provinces. He that, having people's dominion, does not flourish it with a king. Go to hell. one.
तथा ब्रुवति शत्रुघ्ने राघवः पुनरब्रवीत्॥ एवं भवतु काकुत्स्थ क्रियतां मम शासनम्। राज्ये त्वामभिषेक्ष्यामि मधोस्तु नगरे शुभे॥ निवेशय महाबाहो भरतं यद्यवेक्षसे। शूरस्त्वं कृतविद्यश्च समर्थश्च निवेशने॥ नगरं यमुनाजुष्टं तथा जनपदाशुभान्। यो हि वंशं समुत्पाद्य पार्थिवस्य निवेशने॥ न विधत्ते नृपं तत्र नरकं स हि गच्छति।
