Hanuman’s Deliberation on How to Address Sita
इक्ष्वाकूणां वरिष्ठस्य रामस्य विदितात्मनः।।।।शुभानि धर्मयुक्तानि वचनानि समर्पयन्।श्रावयिष्यामि सर्वाणि मधुरां प्रब्रुवन् गिरम्।।।।श्रद्धास्यति यथाहीयं तथा सर्वं समादधे।

śubhāni dharmayuktāni vacanāni samarpayan |
śrāvayiṣyāmi sarvāṇi madhurāṃ prabruvan giram |
śraddhāsyati yathā hīyaṃ tathā sarvaṃ samādadhe ||
