a¢anu råma giri bana tåpasa thala, asanu amia sama ka≈da mµula phala.
sukha sameta sa≈bata dui såtå, pala sama hohiÚ na janiahiÚ jåtå.4.
In this way four days rolled by; the people, both men and women, were gratified
to see ›r∂ Råma. In both camps the feeling uppermost in the heart of all was;î It is not
good to return without S∂tå and Råma. Living in excile in the woods with S∂tå and ›r∂
Råma one would be millions of times more happy than in Amaråvat∂ (the city of
immortals) . Leaving the company of Lakmaƒa, ›r∂ Råma and S∂tå he who chooses to
live at his home is not favoured by Providence. The privilege of living in close proximity
to ›r∂ Råma can be had only when God is propitious to us all. Bathing in the Mandåkin∂
thrice everyday, the sight of ›r∂ Råma, which is a perennial source of joy and
blessedness, roaming about on the hill (Kåmadanåtha) associated with the name of ›r∂
Råma, in the forest adjoining the same and among the hermitages of ascetics situated
thereabout, and living on bulbs, roots and fruits delicious like ambrosia! In this way four
years and ten will be happily spent like a minute without our knowing it. (1ó4)

ìWe do not deserve this happiness.î all exclaimed; ìOur luck is not like that.î Such
was the natural and spontaneous devotion to ›r∂ Råmaís feet in both the camps. (280)

In this way all indulged in their own fancy; their affectionate words were so
charming to hear. In the meantime S∂tåís mother (Queen Sunayanå) despatched her
handmaids to King Da‹arathaís queens; and perceiving that it was a convenient hour
they returned with that information. Having learnt that S∂tåís mothers-in-law were at
