Chalitarama 1.2: Avaloka

1.2

lakṣmaṇa, tātaviyuktām ayodhyāṃ vimānastho nāhaṃ praveṣṭuṃ śaknomi | tad avatīrya gacchāmi | ko 'pi siṃhāsanasyādhaḥ sthitaḥ pādukayoḥ puraḥ | jaṭāvān akṣamālī ca cāmarī ca virājate ||

(Rāma:) Lakṣmaṇa, I cannot enter Ayodhyā, bereft of our father, seated in the aerial car; so I shall get down and walk. — Someone is there below the throne, before the sandals, with matted hair and a rosary, and with a fly-whisk, shining.
