Thereupon the far-famed Laksmana, having his eyes reddened with ire, spoke to Argada, saying-0 child, do you inform Sugriva of my arrival. O conqueror of foes, do you tell him:-'Laksmana, the younger brother of Rama, being stricken with grief on account his brother's disaster, has come to you and is waiting at the gate. If it pleaseth you, do you make good your promise.' Saying these words do you speedily return, O my child, O conqueror of foes.
सोऽङ्गदं रोषताम्राक्षः संदिदेश महायशाः। सुग्रीवः कथ्यतां वत्स ममागमनमित्युत॥ एष रामानुजः प्राप्तस्त्वत्सकाशमरिंदम। भ्रातुर्व्यसनसंतप्तो द्वारि तिष्ठति लक्ष्मणः॥ तस्य वाक्यं यदि रुचिः क्रियतां साधु वानर। इत्युक्त्वा शीघ्रमागच्छ वत्स वाक्यमरिंदम॥
