Toru Dutt: Poetry
Lakshman
How does lakshman console sita
How does lakshman console sita
Sita asks Lakshman to listen to the cries echoing, they are her husband’s cry. She asks Lakshman to go and look for her husband but Lakshman says that his brother is the mightiest and no one can harm him. Sita, being worried about her husband, asks Lakshman to go anyway and bring her husband back to her. Lakshman denies to leave her alone in the woods but Sita is adamant. Lakshman then takes his arrow and carves a magical circle around Sita on the ground which no evil force can penetrate. He takes her blessings and follows the cries of her husband.
