Rama menaiki rata, para sahabatnya bersukacita; yang mulia itu memandang kota—dihiasi panji dan bendera, diselimuti harum dupa agaru yang mahal, serta sesak oleh pelbagai jenis manusia.
Sumantra beheld Rama, who resembled Kubera. Rama was sitting on a richlycovered golden couch, welladorned and anointed with precious, pure, fragrant red sandalpaste the colour of which appeared like the blood of a hog. With Sita standing by his side with a fan of yak's tail in her hand Rama, the tormentor of foes, looked like the Moon united with (the star) Chitra.
