Bharata too returned with joy to Ayodhyå and broke all the news to his preceptor
(the sage Vasi¢ha). He then made it known inside the palace that the Lord of the
Raghus was approaching Ayodhyå safe and sound. On hearing the news all the mothers
started up and ran; but Bharata eased their mind by personally telling them of the Lordís
welfare. When the information reached the citizens, men and women all ran out in their
joy (to meet their lord). With gold plates containing curds, Dµurvå grass, the sacred yellow
pigment known by the name of Gorocana, fruits and flowers and young leaves of the
sacred Tulas∂ (basil) plant, the root of all blessings, ladies sallied forth with the stately
gait of an elephant, singing as they went. All ran out just as they happened to be and
did not take children or old folk with them. People asked one another: ìBrother, did you
see the gracious Lord of the Raghus?î Having come to know of the Lordís advent, the
city of Ayodhyå became a mine of all beauty. A delightful breeze breathed soft, cool and
fragrant. The Sarayµu rolled down crystal clear water. (1ó5)
