## The Nineteenth Chapter

**42.** The monkey is naturally very fickle. What to say if it is mounted on a cage-like, fickle machine?

**43.** Young women, endowed with beauty, are abducted by wicked-minded, strong men from those who are weak.

**44.** A man, deeply distressed by the separation from his virtuous beloved, brings her back home with the help of someone.

**45.** O Lord! Until the earth is destroyed, let some remedy be devised for the welfare of the people, as Dharma and its principles are fading away.

**46.** In rivers, gardens, assemblies, villages, resting places, roads, cities, and houses, there is no other talk except this one, "Avarnavada."

**47.** King Dasharatha's son Rama, well-versed in all scriptures, brought back Janaki, abducted by the king of the Vidyadharas.

**48.** There is no fault in adopting such conduct, for the wise are the supreme authority for the world.

**49.** Moreover, whatever the king does, the same is done by us, his followers.

**50.** O Kakutstha! Thus, wicked-minded men are roaming freely on earth. Subdue them.

**51.** If this one fault had not been in your kingdom, it would have delayed even Indra's empire.

**52.** Hearing this, the king was struck by a moment of sorrow, his heart greatly agitated by the blow of the mace of grief.

**53.** He thought, "Alas! This great misfortune has befallen me. The fire of disgrace has ignited to burn my lotus-like fame."

**54.** The very act that caused me unbearable pain of separation, is now staining my lineage, my family's moon.

**55.** The virtuous Sita, whom the valiant monkeys, aiming at her, made impure, is the same Sita who is the moon of my lineage.

**56.** If a suitable example is found, then nothing is difficult for one who is inherently crooked.
