How can any poet describe the joy and grief of the occasion any more than a dumb man
the taste of what he has eaten. After meeting their mother the Lord of Raghus and His
younger brother (Lakmaƒa) requested their Guru to accompany them. And on receiving
the sageís command the citizens encamped themselves wherever they saw a suitable
site and water close by. (1ó4)

S∂tå came and threw herself at the feet of Vasi¢ha (the chief of sages) and received
suitable blessings solicited by Her mind. The affectionate manner in which She met the
Guruís wife (Arundhat∂) and the wives of other hermits was beyond description. Adoring the
feet of all one by one S∂tå received blessings dear to Her heart. When S∂tå saw all Her
mothers-in-law the tender girl closed Her eyes in dismay. They appeared to Her like so
many female swans fallen into the hands of some fowler. ëë What has a mischievous Providence
done !î She said to Herself. They too were sore distressed when they gazed on S∂tå. ìWe
must bear all that Fate imposes on us,î they thought. Janakaís Daughter then took courage
in Her heart and with Her dark lotus-eyes filled with tears She approached and embraced
all Her mothers-in-law. Earth was enveloped in pathos at the moment. (1ó4)
