3.78

"Rāma is my pupil, O son of Bhṛgu; you are my niece's son; / between the left arm and the other, what difference is there in practical effect? / But the acquisition of divine weapons by you from Paśupati came from me; / therefore I entreat you: cease from strife, and begin noble conduct."

3.78.p2

Jāmadagnya (laughing): "O maternal uncle of my mother! There is no difference between you and the beloved of Bhavānī," beginning thus—

3.78.p3

and ending with: Rāma (laughing): "O Jāmadagnya! This is indeed a unique privilege of taking up arms, that there is disrespect even toward elders!" (in that very place, slightly further on); this is flash of jest, since laughter is described in order to conceal anger toward respected persons on the part of Bhārgava and Rāghava.
