श्वस्त्वं प्रभाते सौमित्रे सुमन्त्राधिष्ठितं रथम् । आरुह्य सीतामारोप्य विषयान्ते समुत्सृज ॥ 7-45-16 ॥

Tomorrow at dawn, O son of Sumitra, mounting the chariot driven by Sumantra and having placed Sita upon it, abandon her at the borders of the kingdom.

On the far bank of the Ganga lies the hermitage of the great-souled Valmiki, resembling a divine abode, situated upon the shore of the Tamasa river.

तत्रैनां विजने देशे विसृज्य रघुनन्दन । शीघ्रमागच्छ भद्रं ते कुरुष्व वचनं मम ॥ 7-45-18 ॥

There, O delight of the Raghus, having left her in that desolate region, return swiftly—blessings be upon you—and carry out my command.

न चास्मिन् प्रतिवक्तव्यः सीतां प्रति कथञ्चन । तस्मात्त्वं गच्छ सौमित्रे नात्र कार्या विचारणा ॥ 7-45-19 ॥

And concerning Sita nothing whatsoever is to be said in reply to me in this matter; therefore go, O son of Sumitra, and let there be no deliberation here.

अप्रीतिर्हि परा मह्यं त्वयेतत्प्रतिवारिते । शापिता हि मया यूयं भुजाभ्यां जीवितेन च ॥ 7-45-20 ॥

For it will be the greatest displeasure to me should you obstruct this; indeed I have adjured you all by my arms and by my very life.
