1.70.2

pradāne hi muniśreṣṭha kulaṃ niravaśeṣataḥ
vaktavyaṃ kulajātena tan nibodha mahāmune

Then to the saint supremely wise
King Janak spoke in suppliant guise:
'Deign, Hermit, with attentive ear,
Mv race's origin to hear.
When kings a daughter's hand bestow,
'Tis right their line and fame to show.
There was a king whose deeds and worth
Spread wide his name through heaven and earth,

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1870, The Rámáyan of Válmíki, translated into English verse
