English Commentary

After listening to all that Guha had said, Bharatha reached the foot of the ingudi tree accompanied by his ministers and gazing at Rama's bed, said to all his mothers the magnanimous Rama rested that night here on this ground in that crushed bed. Guha relates to Bharata about Rama's life in the forest contrary to the life in Ayodhya.
