cha≈.: sån∂ sarala rasa måtu bån∂ suni bharatu byåkula bhae,
locana saroruha sravata s∂°cata biraha ura a≈kura nae.
so daså dekhata samaya tehi bisar∂ sabahi sudhi deha k∂,
tulas∂ saråhata sakala sådara s∂va° sahaja saneha k∂.

with the nectar of sincerity. His lotus eyes shed tears that watered the fresh shoots of

existence. Everyone, says Tulas∂dåsa; reverently extolled him as the perfection of
artless love.

Joining his lotus palms, Bharata, who was foremost among the strong-minded,
took courage and proceeded to give fitting replies to all in words steeped as it were in

ìMy preceptor has given me excellent advice, which has been endorsed by my
subjects, ministers and all. Mother (Kausalyå) too has enjoined on me what she has
thought fit and which I certainly wish to carry out with reverence. The advice of oneís
preceptor, parents, master and friend ought to be acted upon with a cheerful heart as
