Verse 71
अथ नयन-मनो-हरोऽभिरामः स्मर इव चित्त-भवोऽप्य-वाम-शीलः । रघु-सुतमनुजो जगाद वाचं स-जल-घन-स्तनयित्नु-तुल्य-घोषः ॥
Metre: पुष्पिताग्रा
Karandikar: Now, attractive to the eyes and the mind, handsome, and, though occupying the mind (but) not perverse in nature like Cupid, the younger brother whose voice was comparable to the thunder of a water-cloud, spoke to the descendant of Raghu (these) words :

Verse 72
"पति-वध-परिलुप्त-लोल-केशीर्नयन-जलाऽपहृताऽञ्जनौष्ठ-रागाः । कुरु रिपु-वनिता जहीहि शोकं क्व च शरणं जगतां भवान्क्व मोहः ॥
Metre: पुष्पिताग्रा
Karandikar: Make the enemy's wives bereft of (their) waving hair through the slaughter of (their) husbands and get the paint on (their) lips washed off by tears from (their) eyes. Abandon grief. Where are you, the refuge of the worlds, and where is (this) depravity ? (The two are incompatible).

Verse 73
अधिगत-महिमा मनुश्य-लोके वत सुतरामवसीदति प्रमादी । गज-पतिरुरु-शैल-शृङ्ग-वर्ष्मा गुरुरवमज्जति पङ्क-भाङ्न दारु ॥
Metre: पुष्पिताग्रा
Karandikar: Alas ! one who has attained greatness in this world of human beings and, (then) commits an error, suffers a greater downfall. A huge and mighty elephant whose form is like the summit of a great mountain and who is caught in mud, sinks deeper (but) not so (a log of) wood.

Verse 74
बोद्धव्यं किमिव हि यत्त्वया न बुद्धं किं वा ते निमिषितमप्य-बुद्धि-पूर्वम् । लब्धाऽऽत्मा तव सुकृतैरनिष्ट-शङ्की स्नेहौघो घटयति मां तथापि वक्तुम्।" ॥
Metre: प्रहर्षिणी
Karandikar: Which thing that is worth knowing is not known to you ? Or, have you even winked thoughtlessly ? still, the flow of affection (in me ), that has its origin in meritorious deeds and that is afraid of evil befalling you, goads me to speak (to you as above)."

Verse 75
सौमित्रेरिति वचनं निशम्य रामो जृम्भा-वान्भुज-युगलं विभज्य निद्रान् ।अध्यष्ठाच्छिशयिषया प्रवाल-तल्पं रक्षायै प्रति-दिशमादिशन्प्लवङ्गान् ॥
Metre: प्रहर्षिणी
Karandikar: On hearing this speech of the son of Sumitra, Rama about to sleep, yawning and deploying monkeys in each direction for guarding (the camp), occupied a bed of leaves, with the desire of sleeping separating his pair of arms (one under and one over the head).
