Kārttavīrya–Paraśurāma-saṅgrāma-kathā
Sagara’s Inquiry and Vasiṣṭha’s Account
इत्युक्ते वचने मृग्या रामर् शनतुष्टया / मृगश्चोवाच हर्षेण समाविष्टः प्रियां स्वकाम्
ityukte vacane mṛgyā rāmar śanatuṣṭayā / mṛgaścovāca harṣeṇa samāviṣṭaḥ priyāṃ svakām
When those words were spoken, the doe—satisfied by the sight of Rāma—and the stag, filled with joy, spoke forth his dear, heart-desired words.
