2.4.2
śva eva puṣyo bhavitā śvo 'bhiṣecyeta me sutaḥ
rāmo rājīvatāmrākṣo yauvarājya iti prabhuḥ
The crowd dismissed, to high debate
The monarch called his peers of state,
And, counsel from their lips obtained,
Firm in his will his will explained:
'To-morrow with auspicious ray
The moon in Pushya's sign will stay;
Be that the time with happy fate
Mine eldest son to consecrate,
And let my Ráma, lotus-eyed,
As Regent o'er the state preside.'
