2.13.16
ayaṃ pṛcchāmi vacanāt sukham āyuṣmatām aham
rājñaḥ saṃpratibuddhasya yac cāgamanakāraṇam
As thus they spoke, Sumantra, tried
In counsel, to the chiefs replied,
Gathered from lands on every side:
'To Ráma's house I swiftly drave,
For so the king his mandate gave.
Our aged lord and Ráma too
In honour high hold all of you:
I in your words (be long your days!)
Will ask him why he thus delays.'
