There was a crash of cymbals and tabors, conches and clarionets, drums and
sweet-sounding kettledrums, both large and small; and many other charming instruments
also played. Everywhere young women sang auspicious strains. The queen with her
companions was much delighted, as though a withering crop of paddy had been
refreshed by a shower. King Janaka was now care-free and felt gratified as if a tired
swimmer had reached a shallow. The kingsí countenance fell at the breaking of the bow,
just as a lamp is dimmed at dawn of day. S∂tåís delight could only be compared to that
of a female Cåtaka* bird on receiving a rain-drop when the sun is in the same longitude
as the constellation named Svåt∂* (Arcturus). Lakmaƒa fixed his eyes on Råma as the
young of a Cakora bird gazes on the moon. ›atånanda then gave the word and S∂tå
advanced towards Råma . (1ó4)

Accompanied by Her fair and talented companions, who were singing festal
songs, She paced like a cygnet, Her limbs possessing infinite charm. (263)

* According to the Indian tradition a Cåtaka bird would slake its thirst only with a rain-drop obtained
when the sun is in the same longitude as the Arcturus (which is generally in the month of October, a month
when showers are of rare occurrence).
