सर्गः ४७
In which Sītā swoons at her casting off, sends Rāma a message of duty, and is left weeping in the echoing forest.
Sītā falls senseless hearing dreadful word — Sītā laments pure wife abandoned to sorrow — Sītā refuses suicide sparing husband lineage — Sītā sends welfare to mothers and king — Sītā bids Rāma win citizens by righteousness — Lakṣmaṇa circumambulates weeping and recrosses — Lakṣmaṇa mounts chariot glancing back repeatedly — Lone Sītā wails in peacock-resounding forest
