the delighted mothers waved lights over the princes and their brides. (348)

They waved lights again and again; the love and rapture which they felt in their
heart was beyond all words. They scattered about their sons and daughters-in-law
ornaments, jewels and costumes of various kinds and numberless other articles. The
queen-mothers were enraptured to behold their four sons alongwith their brides. As they
gazed again and again on the beauty of S∂tå and Råma they felt delighted and regarded
the object of their life in this world as realized. The queen-mothersí companions, as they
gazed on S∂tå's countenance over and over again, sang and extolled their good fortune.
Moment after moment the gods rained down flowers, danced and sang and offered their
homage. Seeing the four charming couples Goddess ›åradå ransacked all her stock of
similes, but her choice fell on none; they appeared too trivial. She therefore stood gazing
with unwinking eyes, enchanted with their beauty. (1ó4)

After performing the rites prescribed by the Vedas or family usage the queenmothers
waved lights over all the princes and their brides and conducted them to the
palace, offering water to them as a mark of respect and spreading carpets along the
way. (349)
