'Through ignorance was I violated, O brahmin, by the dweller in heaven in your form; not through willful desire, O sage among brahmins—it behooves you to show grace.'

रामो नाम श्रुतो लोके वनं चाप्युपयास्यति । ब्राह्मणार्थे महाबाहुर्विष्णुर्मानुषविग्रहः । तं द्रक्ष्यसि यदा भद्रे ततः पूता भविष्यसि ॥ 7-30-43 ॥
