The marvellous art of the pavilion and its charm captivated the heart even of
sages; yet wise Janaka fetched and placed with his own hands thrones for all the

King Janaka gladly adored Våmadeva (another family preceptor of King Da‹aratha)
and the other §Ris as well; he gave ¢hem all gorgeous seats and received blessings from
all of them in return. (320)

through relation with King Da‹aratha, he made humble supplication to the latter and
extolled him with joined palms. King Janaka worshipped all the members of the
bridegroom's party with the same honour in every respect as he had paid to the
bridegroom's father, and assigned appropriate seats to them all. How am I to describe
