“When all the helpless and afflicted mothers question me, good God, what shall I say to them? When Lakƒma˜a’s mother (SumitrŒ) puts questions to me, what glad tidings shall I convey to her? And when RŒma’s mother (KausalyŒ) comes running like a cow that has recently borne a calf and has her thoughts fixed on it,” the only answer I can make to her queries will be “RŒma, Lakƒma˜a and S¶tŒ (Videha’s Daughter) have left for the woods.” Whosoever question me must be answered; this is the treat I shall have on reaching AyodhyŒ. Again, when the king who is oppressed by grief and whose life hangs on RŒma, puts questions to me, with what face shall I tell him in reply that having safely escorted the princes I have come back? The moment he hears the news of Lakƒma˜a, S¶tŒ and RŒma the king will drop his body like a piece of straw. (1—4)
