THE ARMY MOVES FORWARD

When they came to the Mahendra Mountain, Raama climbed the peak and surveyed the sea.

"We should now think and decide," he said, "how the army can cross the sea. Till then let it camp and rest in the forest." And
Sugreeva passed the order to the commanders. The Vaanaras camped in the forest by the seashore.

When Sugreeva, Raama and Lakshmana had satisfied them selves that the whole army had settled in comfort, the two brothers retired apart.

Raama said: "If a person loses a dear thing, people say that time will enable him to forget about it and he will cease to grieve. But Lakshmana, this is not what I find.'

Dejection again seized Raama for the thought of Seeta and her condition preyed on his mind now more than ever before.
