Struck by the dart, Hanumån dropped unconscious to the ground, crying ìRåma,
Råma, O Lord of the Raghus!î The moment Bharata heard these pleasing words he
rushed and came posthaste by the side of the monkey. Seeing the monkey in swoon,
the prince clasped him to his bosom and tried every means to bring him back to
consciousness but in vain. With a sad look in his face and much distressed at heart and
his eyes full of tears, he spoke the following words; ìThe selfsame Providence who
alienated me from ›r∂ Råma has also inflicted this terrible suffering on me. If in thought,
word and deed I cherish sincere devotion to ›r∂ Råmaís lotus feet, and if the Lord of the
Raghus is kindly disposed towards me, may this monkey be relieved of all exhaustion
and pain.î As soon as these words entered his ears the monkey chief arose and sat up,
crying ìGlory, all glory to the Lord of Kosala!î (1ó4)

A thrill of joy ran through his body and tears rushed to his eyes as Bharata took
and clasped the monkey to his bosom. His heart overflowed with love at the very thought
of ›r∂ Råma, the glory of Raghuís race. (59)

ìTell me, dear friend, if all is well with ›r∂ Råma, the Fountain of Joy, as well as
with His younger brother (Lakmaƒa) and my mother Jånak∂ (Janakaís Daughter).î The
monkey chief told him in brief all that had happened and Bharata felt much distressed to
hear it and his heart was filled with remorse. ìAh me, good heavens, why should I have
been born into this world at all, if I could not be of any service to the Lord?î But realizing
the adverse circumstances, the gallant and mighty prince recollected himself and
addressed Hanumån again, ìYou will be delayed in your journey and nothing will avail
