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 ||
اسی بیان کے مطابق، رام کے چھوٹے بھائی لکشمن—فرمان بردار اور بृहسپتی کے مانند صاحبِ عقل—نے سوچا کہ مناسب جواب کیا ہو اور اسے کس پیرائے میں کہا جائے۔ پھر محبت اور غصّے سے بھڑکے ہوئے بھائی کے غضب کی شعلہ زن آگ میں گھرا، وہ ناخوش ہو کر چل پڑا، جیسے طوفانی ہوا۔
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.
