34 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे बालकाण्डे चतुर्विंशः सर्गः ॥१-२४॥ ततः प्रभाते विमले कृताह्निकमरिन्दमौ । विश्वामित्रं पुरस्कृत्य नद्यास्तीरमुपागतौ ॥१-२४-१॥
In the illustrious Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Bāla Kāṇḍa, the twenty-fourth canto. Then, at the clear dawn, having performed their daily rites, the two subduers of enemies, preceded by Viśvāmitra, came to the bank of the river.
ते च सर्वे महात्मानो मुनयः संशितव्रताः । उपस्थाप्य शुभां नावं विश्वामित्रमथाब्रुवन् ॥१-२४-२॥
And all those great-souled ascetics, strict in their vows, having brought up an auspicious boat, then said to Viśvāmitra:
आरोहतु भवान् नावं राजपुत्रपुरस्कृतः । अरिष्टं गच्छ पन्थानं मा भूत् कालस्य पर्ययः ॥१-२४-३॥
“May Your Honour board the boat, accompanied by the princes. May you travel the path without mishap; let there be no loss of time.”
विश्वामित्रस्तथेत्युक्त्वा तानृषीन् प्रतिपूज्य च । ततार सहितस्ताभ्यां सरितं सागरङ्गमाम् ॥१-२४-४॥
Having said, “So be it,” Viśvāmitra duly honored those sages and crossed, together with the two princes, the river that flows to the ocean.
तत्र शुश्राव वै शब्दं तोयसंरम्भवर्धितम् । मध्यमागम्य तोयस्य तस्य शब्दस्य निश्चयम् ॥१-२४-५॥
There he heard a sound, increased by the agitation of the water. Having reached the middle, [he sought] certainty about the sound of that water. The source text leaves the second sentence syntactically incomplete here; madhyam āgamya literally means “having reached the middle,” and niścayam means “certainty” or “determination.”
