'Oh ! Best of ascetics (Shataananda), All that is required to be done has been done and nothing was omitted. Ahalya was united with sage Gautama like Renuka with Jamadagni ( the descendent of Bhrigu ).' ( So said Vishvamitra ). [1-51-11]
- 'Oh ! Best of men, Oh ! Son of the Raghus ( Rama ), I am fortunate, as you have come here following the invincible maharshi Vishvaamitra. Welcome to you. - [1-51-13]
- Highly lustrous Vishvaamitra has performed deeds which defy all imagination. By his austerities, he became Brahmarshi and possesses unparalleled radiance. He is the world's supreme resort. - [1-51-14]
- None other than you is fortunate enough on earth, oh ! Rama, as you are in the custodial care of Vishvamitra, the scion of Kushika, who has practised supreme ascesis. - [1-51-15]
