Here after holding the equanimity of mind with patience self-possessed Răma spoke thus to the son of Sumitrā, his dear brother, and friend, who was greatly sorry, had lost his patience and was pressed down with this misfortune of Rāma, and had his eyes inflated with anger like to an infuriated elephant.
अथ तं व्यथया दीनं सविशेषममर्षितम्। सरोषमिव नागेन्द्रं रोषविस्फारितेक्षणम्॥ आसाद्य रामः सौमित्रिं सुहृदं भ्रातरं प्रियम्। उवाचेदं स धैर्येण धारयन् सत्त्वमात्मवान्॥
