According to Rāma's command Laksmana, gifted with auspicious mark, arrived at the gate and called those who had come there for business. But none said that he had been brought there by any business.
कार्यार्थिनश्च सौमित्रे व्याहतुं त्वमुपाक्रम। रामस्य भाषितं श्रुत्वा लक्ष्मणः शुभलक्षणः॥ द्वारदेशमुपागम्य कार्यिणश्चाह्वयस्त्वयम्। न कश्चिदब्रवीत्तत्र मम कार्यमिहाद्य वै॥
