Rejoicing in all creatures' good,

Their guest, the glorious Ráma, led

Within a cot with leaves o'erhead.

With highest honour all the best

Of radiant saints received their guest,

With kind observance, as is meet,

And gave him water for his feet.

To highest pitch of rapture wrought

Their stores of roots and fruit they brought.

They poured their blessings on his head,
