परिवादोऽपवादो वा राघवे नोपपद्यते।।।।सान्त्वयन्सर्वभूतानि राम श्शुद्धेन चेतसा।गृह्णाति मनुजव्याघ्र प्रियैर्विषयवासिनः।।।।
parivādo 'pavādo vā rāghave nopapadyate ||

The best among men, Rama has won the trust of the inhabitants of the country by securing their affection with a pure heart and by doing acts dear to them. Therefore, neither a word of blame nor reproach applies to this scion of the Raghu dynasty (Rama).
