That like Himálaya's mountain showed.

And there Kauśalyá, noble queen,

Sumitrá with her lovely mien,

Kaikeyí of the dainty waist,

And other dames his bowers who graced,

Stood in the palace side by side

And welcomed home each youthful bride:

Fair Sítá, lofty-fated dame,

Urmilá of the glorious fame,

And Kuśadhwaj's children fair,
