In this way four days rolled by; the people, both men and women, were gratified to see Ýr¶ RŒma. In both camps the feeling uppermost in the heart of all was;”It is not good to return without S¶tŒ and RŒma. Living in excile in the woods with S¶tŒ and Ýr¶ RŒma one would be millions of times more happy than in AmarŒvat¶ (the city of immortals)˚. Leaving the company of Lakƒma˜a, Ýr¶ RŒma and S¶tŒ he who chooses to live at his home is not favoured by Providence. The privilege of living in close proximity to Ýr¶ RŒma can be had only when God is propitious to us all. Bathing in the MandŒkin¶ thrice everyday, the sight of Ýr¶ RŒma, which is a perennial source of joy and blessedness, roaming about on the hill (KŒmadanŒtha) associated with the name of Ýr¶ RŒma, 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. (1—4)
