Thereupon beholding me ready to depart and increase in bulk and about to leap up in the welkin, Sītā, the daughter of the king Janaka, poorly, bathed in tears, overwhelmed with sorrow and having her voice choked with grief, saying 'Blessed are you O great monkey, since you shall behold the large-armed and the lotuseyed Ráma and the highly famed Lakşmaņa, my lord's younger brother.
गमने च कृतोत्साहमवेक्ष्य वरवर्णिनी॥ विवर्धमानं च हि मामुवाच जनकात्मजा। अश्रुपूर्णमुखी दीना बाष्पगद्गदभाषिणी॥ ममोत्पतनसम्भ्रान्ता शोकवेगसमाहता। मामुवाच ततः सीता सभाग्योऽसि महाकपे॥ यद् द्रक्ष्यसि महाबाहुं रामं कमललोचनम्। लक्ष्मणं च महाबाहुं देवरं मे यशस्विनम्॥
