The Ramayana/Book I/Canto LXXII: The Gift of Kine

When royal Janak's words were done, Joined with Vas'ishtha Kus'ik's son, The mighty sage began his speech: 'No mind may soar, no thought can reach The glories of Ikshváku's line, Or, great Videha's King, of thine: None in the whole wide world may vie With them in fame and honours high. Well matched, I ween, in holy bands, These peerless pairs will join their hands. But hear me as I speak once more; Thy brother, skilled in duty's lore, Has at his home a royal pair Of daughters most divinely fair. I for the hands of these sweet two For Bharat and S'atrughna sue, Both princes of heroic mould, Wise, fair of form, and lofty-souled. All Das'aratha's sons, I ween, Own each young grace of form and mien: Brave as the Gods are they, nor yield To the great Lords the worlds who shield.

By these, good Prince of merits high, Ikshváku's house with thine ally.'

The suit the holy sage preferred, With willing ear the monarch heard: Vas'ishtha's lips the counsel praised: Then spake the king with hands upraised: 'Now blest indeed my race I deem, Which your high will, O Saints supreme, With Das'aratha's house unites In bonds of love and marriage rites. So be it done. My nieces twain Let Bharat and S'atrughna gain, And the four youths the selfsame day Four maiden hands in theirs shall lay. No day so lucky may compare, For marriage--so the wise declare-- With the last day of Phálguni Ruled by the genial deity.' Then with raised hands in reverence due To those arch-saints he spoke anew: 'I am your pupil, ever true: To me high favour have ye shown; Come, sit ye on my royal throne, For Das'aratha rules these towers E'en as Ayodhyá now is ours. Do with your own whate'er ye choose: Your lordship here will none refuse.'

He spoke, and to Videha's king Thus Das'aratha, answering: 'Boundless your virtues, lords, wbose sway The realms of Mithilá obey. With honouring care you entertain. Both holy sage and royal train. Now to my house my steps I bend-- May blessings still on you at end-- Due offerings to the shades to pay.' Thus spoke the king, and turned away: To Janak first he bade adieu, Then followed fast those holy two. The monarch reached his palace where The rites were paid with solemn care. When the next sun began to shine He rose and made his gift of kine. A bundled thousand cows prepared For each young prince the Bráhmans shared. Each had her horns adorned with gold; And duly was the number told, Four hundred thousand perfect tale: Each brought a calf, each filled a pail. And when that glorious task was o'er, The monarch with his children four, Showed like the Lord of Life divine When the worlds' guardians round him shine.

The Ramayana/Book I/Canto LXXIII: The Nuptials

On that same day that saw the king His gift of kine distributing, The lord of Kekaya's son, by name Yudhájit, Bharat's uncle, came, Asked of the monarch's health, and then Addressed the reverend king of men: 'The lord of Kekaya's realm by me Sends greeting, noble King, to thee: Asks if the friends thy prayers would bless Uninterrupted health possess. Right anxious, mighty King, is he My sister's princely boy to see. For this I sought Ayodhyá fair The message of my sire to bear. There learning, O my liege, that thou With sons and noble kinsmen now Wast resting here, I sought the place Longing to see my nephew's face.' The king with kind observance cheered His friend by tender ties endeared, And every choicest honour pressed Upon his honourable guest.

That night with all his children spent, At morn King Das'aratha went, Behind Vas'ishtha and the rest, To the fair ground for rites addressed. Then when the lucky hour was nigh Called Victory, of omen high, Came Ráma, after vow and prayer For nuptial bliss and fortune fair, With the three youths in bright attire, And stood beside his royal sire. To Janak then Vas'ishtha sped, And to Videha's monarch said: 'O King, Ayodhyá's ruler now Has breathed the prayer and vowed the vow, And with his sons expecting stands The giver of the maidens' hands. The giver and the taker both Must ratify a mutual oath. Perform the part for which we wait, And rites of marriage celebrate.'

Skilled in the laws which Scriptures teach, He answered thus Vas'ishtha's speech: 'O Saint, what warder bars the gate? Whose bidding can the king await? In one's own house what doubt is shown? This kingdom, Sage, is all thine own. E'en now the maidens may he found Within the sacrificial ground: Each vow is vowed and prayed each prayer, And they, like fire, are shining there. Here by the shrine my place I took Expecting thee with eager look. No bar the nuptial rites should stay: What cause have we for more delay?' When Janak's speech the monarch heard To sons and saints he gave the word, And set them in the holy ring. Then to Vas'ishtha spoke the king Of Mithilá: 'O mighty Sage, Now let this task thy care engage, And lend thine aid and counsel wise The nuptial rites to solemnize.'

The saint Vas'ishtha gave assent, And quickly to the task he went. With Vis'vámitra, nothing both, And S'atánanda aiding both. Then, as the rules prescribe, they made An altar in the midst, and laid Fresh wreaths of fragrant flowers thereon. The golden ladles round it shone; And many a vase, which branches hid Fixed in the perforated lid, And sprays, and cups, and censers there Stood filled with incense rich and rare; Shell-bowls,and spoons, and salvers dressed With gifts that greet the honoured guest; Piles of parched rice some dishes bore, Others with corn prepared ran o'er; And holy grass was duly spread In equal lengths, while prayers were said. Next chief of saints, Vas'ishtha came And laid the offering in the flame. Then by the hand King Janak drew His Sítá, beautiful to view, And placed her, bright in rich attire, Ráma to face, before the fire, Thus speaking to the royal boy Who filled Kaus'alyá's heart with joy: 'Here Sítá stands, my daughter fair, The duties of thy life to share. Take from her father, take thy bride, Join hand to hand, and bliss betide! A faithful wife, most blest is she, And as thy shade will follow thee.'

Thus as he spoke the monarch threw O'er her young limbs the holy dew, While Gods and saints were heard to swell The joyous cry, 'Tis well! 'Tis well! His daughter Sítá thus bestowed, O'er whom the sacred drops had flowed. King Janak's heart with rapture glowed. Then to Prince Lakshman thus he cried'. 'Take Urmilá thine offered bride, And clasp her hand within thine own Ere yet the lucky hour be flown.' Then to Prince Bharat thus cried he; 'Come, take the hand of Mándavi.' Then to S'atrughna: 'In thy grasp The hand of S'rutakirti clasp. Now, Raghu's sons, may all of you Be gentle to your wives and true;

Keep well the vows you make to-day, Nor let occasion slip away.'

King Janak's word the youths obeyed; The maidens' hands in theirs they laid. Then with their brides the princes went With ordered steps and reverent Bound both the tire and Janak, round The sages and the sacred ground.

A flowery flood of lucid dyes In rain descended from the skies, While with celestial voices blent Sweet strains from many an instrument, And the nymphs danced in joyous throng Responsive to the minstrel's song. Such signs of exultation they Saw on the princes' wedding day. Still rang the heavenly music's sound When Raghu's sons thrice circled round The fire, each one with reverent head, And homeward then their brides they led. They to the sumptuous palace hied That Janak's care had seen supplied. The monarch girt with saint and peer Still fondly gazing followed near.
