(Parshu) Rama who had been thus deprived of his senses, then regaining his consciousness and receiving back (as it were) his life, bowed to the greatly effulgent Vishnu (Rama). Commanded by Vishnu he again went to the Mahendra mountain. The great ascetic lived there in fear and in shame.
स तु विह्वलतां गत्वा प्रतिलभ्य च चेतनाम्। रामः प्रत्यागतप्राणः प्राणमद् विष्णुतेजसम्॥ विष्णुना सोऽभ्यनुज्ञातो महेन्द्रमगमत् पुनः। भीतस्तु तत्र न्यवसद् व्रीडितस्तु महातपाः॥
