English Translation

ततः then, कपिः Hanuman, प्राप्तमनोरथार्थः with his desires fulfilled, तां राजसुताम् the princess, अक्षताम् not hurt, विदित्वा after knowing, ताम् her, पुनरेव once again, प्रत्यक्षतः directly, दृष्ट्वा after seeing, प्रतिप्रयाणाय for departing, मतिम् thought, चकार entertained.

English Commentary

Hanuman, having fulfilled his desires and knowing that Sita is not hurt, thought of departing after meeting Sita once again (to testify that she is really safe). इत्यार्षे श्रीमद्रामायणे वाल्मीकीय आदिकाव्ये सुन्दरकाण्डे पञ्चपञ्चाशस्सर्गः।। Thus ends the fiftyfifth sarga of Sundarakanda of the holy Ramayana, the first epic composed by sage Valmiki.
