26 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे अयोध्याकाण्डे सप्तविंशः सर्गः ॥२-२७॥ एवमुक्ता तु वैदेही प्रियार्हा प्रियवादिनी। प्रणयादेव संक्रुद्धा भर्तारमिदमब्रवीत्॥ १॥
In the revered Valmiki Ramayana, in the Ayodhya Kāṇḍa, the twenty-seventh canto. ॥2-27॥ Thus addressed, Vaidehī, deserving of affection and speaking lovingly, became angry out of affection alone and said this to her husband:
किमिदं भाषसे राम वाक्यं लघुतया ध्रुवम्। त्वया यदपहास्यं मे श्रुत्वा नरवरोत्तम॥ २॥
What are you saying, Rama? Surely you are making light of me with these words. Having heard from you what is perhaps meant as mockery of me, O best of men—[the precise relation of “लघुतया” and “यदपहास्यं मे” is somewhat ambiguous].
वीराणां राजपुत्राणां शस्त्रास्त्रविदुषां नृप। अनर्हमयशस्यं च न श्रोतव्यं त्वयेरितम्॥ ३॥
Of heroic royal princes skilled in weapons and missiles, O king, such speech—unworthy and disgraceful—is not to be heard when uttered by you.
आर्यपुत्र पिता माता भ्राता पुत्रस्तथा स्नुषा। स्वानि पुण्यानि भुञ्जानाः स्वं स्वं भाग्यमुपासते॥ ४॥
O noble prince, a father, mother, brother, son, and daughter-in-law each enjoy their own merits and pursue their own respective fortunes.
भर्तुर्भाग्यं तु नार्येका प्राप्नोति पुरुषर्षभ। अतश्चैवाहमादिष्टा वने वस्तव्यमित्यपि॥ ५॥
But a woman alone obtains the fortune of her husband, O best of men. Therefore indeed I too have been commanded to dwell in the forest.
