In which Bharata enters desolate Ayōdhyā likened to dark night and spent altar, and asks his charioteer why song and scent are gone
Bharata enters Ayōdhyā in swift sounding chariot — Bharata sees city dark as lightless night with owls — Bharata likens town to oppressed Rōhiṇī and thin river — Bharata likens town to spent sacrifice and routed army — Bharata likens town to silent ocean wave and empty altar — Bharata likens town to strayed cow fallen star and burnt creeper — Bharata asks why song instruments scents and traffic ceased — Bharata enters father house bare as lionless cave
