cåtaka ha≈sa saråhiata ¢e≈ka bibeka bibhµuti.324.
As for Bharata, he was the beloved of ›r∂ Råma and did not owe his greatness
to this achievement. The Cåtaka bird is praised for its constancy and the swan for its
power of discrimination (sifting milk from water). (324)

His body grew thinner day by day. His fat was reduced, yet his strength of body
and the charm of his face remained the same. The flame of his love for ›r∂ Råma was
ever bright and strong. His partiality for virtue steadily grew and his mind was not at
all sad, even as with the advent of autumn the water (of lakes and rivers etc.) decreases
but the rattan plants thrive and the lotus blossoms. Control of the mind and senses,
self-restraint, religious observances and fasting shone like so many stars in the
cloudless sky of Bharataís heart. His faith stood as the pole-star, the prospect of ›r∂
Råmaís return on the expiry of His term of exile represented the full-moon night, while
the thought of his lord glistened like the milky way. And his affection for ›r∂ Råma was
like a fixed and spotless moon that ever shone clear amidst a galaxy of stars. All great
poets hesitate to portray the mode of living, the creed, the doings, the devotion, the
dispassion, the stainless virtues and the splendour of Bharata; they baffle the wits of
even ›ea (the thousand-headed lord of serpents), Gaƒe‹a (the god of wisdom) and
Sarasvat∂ (the goddess of speech). (1ó4)
