Ramayana 2.56.32

वैश्वदेवबलिं कृत्वा रौद्रं वैष्णव मेव च।वास्तुसंशमनीयानि मङ्गलानि प्रवर्तयन्।।2.56.31।।जपं च न्यायत कृत्वा स्नात्वा नद्यां यथाविधि।पापसंशमनं राम श्चकार बलिमुत्तमम्।।2.56.32।।

japaṃ ca nyāyataḥ kṛtvā snātvā nadyāṃ yathāvidhi | pāpa-saṃśamanaṃ rāmaś cakāra balim uttamam ||

And after performing japa in the proper, rule-bound manner, and bathing in the river as prescribed, Rāma made an excellent offering meant to calm and remove sin.
