Hearing Sītā's words, the lord of Saçī did accordingly. he did not touch the earth with his feet, and his eyes remained winkless. he bloomed in youth, and the blossoms did not fade on his attire. Thereupon knowing him for Vāsava, Sītā was overjoyed.
सीताया वचनं श्रुत्वा तथा चक्रे शचीपतिः। गृथिवीं नास्पृशत् पद्भ्यामनिमेषेक्षणानि च॥ अरजोऽम्बरधारी च नम्लीनकुसुमस्तथा। तं ज्ञात्वा लक्ष्णैः सीता वासवं परिहर्षिता ॥
