Seeing Lakshmana thus freed from his own body, Rama, overwhelmed by anxiety and intense fear, was drenched in sweat. ||41||
His face was extremely dejected, he fainted repeatedly, and his eyes were filled with tears. Rama was looking at his limbs from all sides. ||42||
He was saying, "In this body, there is not even a scratch as big as a fingernail, then how did he attain this state? - Who caused this condition?" ||43||
Thinking this, Rama's body started trembling and his soul was filled with sorrow. Although he was a scholar himself, he quickly called for those who knew about this matter. ||44||
When all the physicians, skilled in mantras and medicines, who were masters of their art, examined him and gave their verdict, Rama, filled with despair, fainted and fell to the ground like a uprooted tree. ||45-46||
With great difficulty, he was revived from his faint by sandalwood-mixed water and the wind favorable to the Talavrinta tree. Then, in great distress, he started wailing. ||47||
As Rama was afflicted by sorrow and grief, he was also experiencing pain. Therefore, he was shedding a stream of tears that covered his face. ||48||
At that time, Rama's face, covered with tears, looked like the moon adorned with rare clouds. ||49||
Seeing Rama in such a state, his heart filled with extreme sorrow, the palace, like a vast ocean, was overwhelmed with grief. ||50||
The noble women, submerged in the ocean of sorrow, with their bodies withered, filled the earth and sky with their excessive tears and cries. ||51||
They were saying, "Oh Lord! Oh Joy of the World! Oh Most Beautiful Life! Speak to us, your beloved ones. Where are you? Why did you leave?" ||52||
"Why are you leaving us without any fault on our part? Even if there is a fault, it does not stay in a person for long." ||53||
Hearing this news, Lavana and Ankusha, overwhelmed by extreme sorrow, were filled with anxiety. ||54||
