Bowing with your head, O Lakshmana, you shall speak to all of them; and the king, steadfast and intent upon his duties, must also be addressed thus.

You know in truth, O Raghava, how pure Sita is, endowed with supreme devotion and ever devoted to your welfare.

अहं त्यक्ता त्वया वीर अयशोभीरुणा जने । यच्च ते वचनीयं स्यादपवादसमुत्थितम् । मया च परिहर्तव्यं त्वं हि मे परमा गतिः ॥ 7-48-13 ॥
I have been abandoned by you, O hero, who feared dishonor among the people; yet whatever censure might arise against you out of slander, that too must be removed by me, for you are my supreme refuge.

And the king, steadfast in righteousness, must be told this: that you should always conduct yourself toward the citizens as you do toward your brothers.

For this is the highest duty for you, and from it comes unsurpassed glory.
