राजा हि वृद्धः सन्तापं त्वदर्थमुपयास्यति । तस्माद्गमनमद्यैव रोचते तव पार्थिव ॥ 7-38-11 ॥

"The king is indeed aged, and on your account he will fall into distress; therefore, O sovereign, it seems best that your departure take place this very day."

लक्ष्मणेनानुयात्रेण पृष्ठतो ऽनुगमिष्यते । धनमादाय विपुलं रत्नानि विविधानि च ॥ 7-38-12 ॥

He shall be followed from behind by Lakshmana as his escort, taking with him abundant wealth and jewels of various kinds.

But Yudhajit said "So be it" regarding his departure, and addressed Raghava: "Let these jewels and this wealth remain inexhaustibly with you alone."

प्रदक्षिणं स राजानं कृत्वा केकयवर्धनः । रामेण हि कृतः पूर्वमभिवाद्य प्रदक्षिणम् ॥ 7-38-14 ॥

That increaser of the Kekayas' glory then circumambulated the king; for Rama had first saluted him and circumambulated him in reverence.

लक्ष्मणेन सहायेन प्रयातः केकयेश्वरः । हते ऽसुरे यथा वृत्रे विष्णुना सह वासवः ॥ 7-38-15 ॥

The lord of the Kekayas set out with Lakshmana as his companion, as Vasava (Indra) went forth together with Vishnu when the demon Vritra had been slain.
