goose ( i. e., Cakavi ), fluttering for the company of its partner. This reminded him of the pitiable condition of Añjanā without him. His heart was filled with remorse, and thus with sympathy for his beloved ( 16/117126 ). He atonce returns with his partner ( leaving the army without knowing it all ). He secretly approaches Añjanā and thus secretly passes several nights with her -- तयोरज्ञातयोरेवं यथोचितलिधायिनोः। 3164 Fen Queretaret: 11 ( 16/212 ) Again, while leaving, he advises her not to disclose his arrival to anyone; and that he would himself do so after coming back from the missior ( 16/231-237). It takes Pavanañjai a considerably longer time in his mission. Mean while, Añjanā becomes pregnant, and this fact does not remain hidden any longer to her mother-in-low, Ketumati ( 17/1-5). On being suspected about her chastity, Añjanā ( though instructed not to do so ) tells her mother-in-law everything truly & clearly (Ibid ). But, as the luck would have it, she not least believe her clarification of her chastity; and thus very cruelly turned Añjana out of her palace आर्यक्रूराशु नीत्वेमा महेन्द्रपुरगोचरम्।
A fent el fiferuite FRRHII (17/13) 16. Unlike the story of the 'Rāmāyaṇa' and 'Rāmacaritamānasa', in
Padmapurāņa, Kharadūşaņa is neither Ravana's brother, nor are they two characters. Here, Kharadüşana is only one person. He abdicates Rāvana's beautiful sister Candranakha ( Sürpanakha ) ( 9/22-25 ). Though in the beginning Ravana is ready to attack on him, he marries his sister with Kharaduşana on his wife Mandodari's con-viction ( 9/31-39 ). Thus, in Padmapurāna, Kharadūşaņa is not Rāvana's brother, but his brother-inlaw.
