Ramayana 2.5.18

सिक्तसम्मृष्टरथ्या हि तदहर्वनमालिनी।आसीदयोध्यानगरी समुच्छ्रितगृहध्वजा।।।।

siktasammṛṣṭarathyā hi tadahar vanamālinī | āsīd ayodhyānagarī samucchritagṛhadhvajā ||

On that day, the city of Ayodhyā had its streets sprinkled with water and thoroughly swept; garlanded as it were with gardens, it stood with house-banners raised high.
