Such signs of exultation they

Saw on the princes' wedding day.

Still rang the heavenly music's sound

When Raghu's sons thrice circled round

The fire, each one with reverent head,

And homeward then their brides they led.

They to the sumptuous palace hied

That Janak's care had seen supplied.

The monarch girt with saint and peer

Still fondly gazing followed near.
