Lakshmana’s Wrath and the Summoning of Sugriva
यथोक्तकारी वचनमुत्तरं चैव सोत्तरम्।बृहस्पतिसमो बुद्ध्या मत्वा रामानुजस्तदा4.31.12।।कामक्रोधसमुत्थेन भ्रातुः कोपाग्निना वृतः।प्रभञ्जन इवाप्रीतः प्रययौ लक्ष्मणस्तदा4.31.13।।
yathoktākārī vacanam uttaraṃ caiva sottaram |
bṛhaspatisamo buddhyā matvā rāmānujas tadā 4.31.12 ||
kāmakrodhasamutthena bhrātuḥ kopāgninā vṛtaḥ |
prabhañjana iva aprītaḥ prayayau lakṣmaṇas tadā 4.31.13 ||
Dalam rangkaian ini, Lakṣmaṇa, adik Rāma, yang patuh pada titah dan cerdas bagaikan Bṛhaspati, menimbang jawaban yang tepat serta cara menyampaikannya. Kemudian, diselimuti nyala murka sang kakak yang timbul dari cinta dan amarah, ia berangkat dengan hati tidak senang, laksana angin badai.
Then Lakshmana, obedient, intelligent like Brihaspati, like a tempest, encompassed by the fire of anger and deliberating in his mind as to the possible questions from Sugriva and the reply from him.
