Immediately after my departure to the forest, the king's (Kekaya's) daughter having accomplished her objective, will enthrone Bharata without any distraction. [2-22-12]
बुद्धिः प्रणीता येन इयम् मनः च सुसमाहितम् | तत् तु न अर्हामि सम्क्लेष्टुम् प्रव्रजिष्यामि माचिरम् || २-२२-१४
With wellcomposed mind this decision has been taken. I do not like to inflict pain (on Dasaratha or Kaikeyi). I shall, therefore, depart to the forest without delay. [2-22-14]
