lakṣmaṇasyātmajau smṛtau
takṣaḥ puṣkala ity āstāṁ
bharatasya mahīpate
O King! Lakṣmaṇa had two sons, named Aṅgada and Citraketu, and Bharata also had two sons, named Takṣa and Puṣkala.
|| 9.11.13-14 ||
subāhuḥ śrutasenaś ca
śatrughnasya babhūvatuḥ
gandharvān koṭiśo jaghne
bharato vijaye diśām
tadīyaṁ dhanam ānīya
sarvaṁ rājñe nyavedayat
śatrughnaś ca madhoḥ putraṁ
lavaṇaṁ nāma rākṣasam
hatvā madhuvane cakre
mathurāṁ nāma vai purīm
Śatrughna had two sons, named Subāhu and Śrutasena. When Lord Bharata went to conquer all directions, he had to kill millions of Gandharvas. Taking all their wealth, he offered it to Rāmacandra. Śatrughna killed a Rākṣasa named Lavaṇa, who was the son of Madhu Rākṣasa. Thus he established in the great forest known as Madhuvana the town known as Mathurā.
|| 9.11.15 ||
munau nikṣipya tanayau
sītā bhartrā vivāsitā
dhyāyantī rāma-caraṇau
vivaraṁ praviveśa ha
Being forsaken by her husband, Sītā entrusted her two sons to the care of Vālmīki. Then, meditating upon the lotus feet of Rāmacandra, she entered into the earth.
Unable to bear the pain of separation from her husband she entered a hole in the earth.
|| 9.11.16 ||
tac chrutvā bhagavān rāmo
rundhann api dhiyā śucaḥ
smaraṁs tasyā guṇāṁs tāṁs tān
nāśaknod roddhum īśvaraḥ
After hearing the news of mother Sītā's entering the earth, the Supreme Lord Rāma, though capable of checking his grief by intelligence, on remembering her good qualities, he could not do so, though he was the Lord.
Though Rāma was the Supreme Lord, he could not check his grief, since his nature is to be controlled by prema.
|| 9.11.17 ||
strī-puṁ-prasaṅga etādṛk
sarvatra trāsam-āvahaḥ
apīśvarāṇāṁ kim uta
