31.Lakshmana's   message   said   that   Dasaratha   didnot   act   as   a   father.   He   considers   Rama   as his   father,   lord,   brother   and   one   who   will   stand   by   him   in   times   of   need.

32.Lakshmana   believed   that   Dasaratha   has   lost   his   followers   by   this   action   of   sending   Rama out   of   the   country.

33.Lakshmana   wondered   how   Dasaratha   will   function   by   antagonising   all   the   people   by
sending   Rama   to   the   forest.

34.Sumantra   told   Dasaratha   that   as   far   as   Sita   was   concerned,   she   is   shoocked   beyond   belief.

35.Sumantra   told   Dasaratha   that   the   Sita   did   not   speak   a   word   to   him   because   she   was grief   stricken

36.Sumantra   told   Dasaratha   that   Sita   seeing   Rama's   tired   face   and   Sumantra   leaving,   shed tears.

37.Sumantra   told   Dasaratha   that   Rama   stood   where   he   was   being   looked   after   by   Lakshmana with   folded   palms.   Sita   cried   seeing   me   and   the   chariot.
