Entranced a moment Bharat gazed:

Then reverential hands he raised,

And on his brother humbly pressed

The honours due to welcome guest.

Then Bharat clomb the car to greet

His king and bowed him at his feet,

Till Ráma raised him face to face

And held him in a close embrace.

Then Lakshmaṇ and the Maithil dame

He greeted as he spoke his name[1026]
