Thus accosted by Surasā, (Hanumān) with a glad countenance, said, Rama, son to Dasaratha, had entered the Dandaka forest in company with his brother, Lakşmaņa, and his wife, Vaidehi.
अथवा मैथिली एवमुक्तः सुरसया प्रहृष्टवदनोऽब्रवीत्। रामो दाशरथिर्नाम प्रविष्टो दण्डकावनम्। लक्ष्मणेन सह भ्रात्रा वैदेह्या चापि भार्यया॥
