Thereupon rising up in no time, and welcoming him, Bharata, the descendant of Raghu, spoke to Hanuman communicating the pleasant tidings, the following words. And embracing the monkey respectfully the graceful Bharata sprinkled him with profuse tears not out of grief but of joy.
ततो मुहूर्तादुत्थाय प्रत्याश्वस्य च राघवः। हनूमन्तमुवाचेदं भरतः प्रियवादिनम्॥ अशोकजैः प्रीतिमयैः कपिमालिङ्गय संभ्रमात्। सिषेच भरतः श्रीमान्विपुलैरश्रुबिन्दुभिः।॥
