The Lord of Raghus would do and say only that which would please S¶tŒ and Lakƒma˜a. He would narrate old legends and stories, to which Lakƒma˜a and S¶tŒ would listen with great delight. Every time Ýr¶ RŒma thought of AyodhyŒ His eyes filled with tears. The gracious Lord became sad when He recalled His father and mother, His family and brothers and particularly the affection, amiability and devotion of Bharata; but He recovered Himself when He realized that the time was unpropitious. Perceiving this, S¶tŒ and Lakƒma˜a felt distressed even as the shadow of a man behaves just like him. When He saw the condition of His beloved Consort and His brother (Lakƒma˜a), the self- possessed and compassionate RŒma, the Delighter of Raghus and the Soother of His devotees heart, began to narrate some sacred legends, hearing which Lakƒma˜a and S¶tŒ felt relieved.
