33 passagesसुसंरब्धं तु सौमित्रिं लक्ष्मणं क्रोधमूर्च्छितम्। रामस्तु परिसान्त्व्याथ वचनं चेदमब्रवीत् ।। २.९७.१ ।।
Then, having thoroughly pacified Lakshmana, the son of Sumitrā, who was overcome by anger, Rama said this speech:
किमत्र धनुषा कार्यमसिना वा सचर्मणा। महेष्वासे महाप्राज्ञे भरते स्वयमागते ।। २.९७.२ ।।
What use is there here for a bow, or for a sword together with a shield, when Bharata, the great wielder of the bow and greatly wise, has come of his own accord?
पितु: सत्यं प्रतिश्रुत्य हत्वा भरतमागतम्। किं करिष्ऺयामि राज्येन सापवादेन लक्ष्मण ।। २.९७.३ ।।
Having promised truth to my father, and having slain Bharata who has come, what shall I do with a kingdom accompanied by reproach, Lakshmana?
यद्द्रव्यं बान्धवानां वा मित्राणां वा क्षये भवेत्। नाहं तत् प्रतिगृह्णीयां भक्षान् विषकृतानिव ।। २.९७.४ ।।
Whatever wealth would arise from the destruction of relatives or friends, I would not accept it, like foods made poisonous.
धर्ममर्थं च कामं च पृथिवीं चापि लक्ष्मण। इच्छामि भवतामर्थे एतत् प्रतिश्रृणोमि ते ।। २.९७.५ ।।
I desire righteousness, material prosperity, pleasure, and the earth also, Lakshmana, for the sake of you all; this I promise to you.
