Having consecrated the two young princes, Raghava dispatched them — Angada to the western land, and Chandraketu facing northward.

Lakshmana, having dwelt a full year in Angada's city, then, when his unassailable son was firmly established, returned again to Ayodhya.

Both Lakshmana, son of Sumitra, and Bharata, supremely righteous and devoted to Rama's feet, did not, out of their love, even notice the time that passed.
