जो बसिष्ठ अनुसासन दीन्हा । लोक बेद बिधि सादर कीन्हा ॥
भूसुर भीर देखि सब रानी । सादर उठीं भाग्य बड़ जानी ॥
jo basiṣṭha anusāsana dīnhā | loka beda bidhi sādara kīnhā ||
bhūsura bhīra dekhi saba rānī | sādara uṭhīṃ bhāgya bar̤a jānī ||

What happens in this chapter
Dasharatha honours Brahmanas, Vishvamitra and Vasishtha
Whatever Vasishtha directs is carried out with respect, by both worldly and Vedic rule. Seeing the crowd of Brahmanas, the queens rise in reverence, counting it their great fortune. The king washes their feet, has them bathed, worships them properly and feeds them, and they leave content, blessing him. Dasharatha worships Vishvamitra, son of Gadhi, in many ways, saying, lord, no one is as blessed as I am. He praises him greatly and, with the queens, takes the dust of his feet, gives him fine lodging within the palace and attends to his wishes. The princes with their brides and the king with the queens bow again and again at Vasishtha's feet, and the sage blesses them.
पाय पखारि सकल अन्हवाये । पूजि भली विधि भूप जेवाँए ॥
आदर दान प्रेम परिपोषे । देत असीस चले मन तोषे ॥
pāya pakhāri sakala anhavāye | pūji bhalī vidhi bhūpa jevām̐e ||
ādara dāna prema paripoṣe | deta asīsa cale mana toṣe ||
बहु बिधि कीन्ह गाधिसुत पूजा । नाथ मोहि सम धन्य न दूजा ॥
कीन्ह प्रसंसा भूपति भूरी । रानिन्ह सहित लीन्ह पग धूरी ॥
bahu bidhi kīnha gādhisuta pūjā | nātha mohi sama dhanya na dūjā ||
kīnha prasaṃsā bhūpati bhūrī | rāninha sahita līnha paga dhūrī ||
भीतर भवन दीन्ह बर बासु । मन जोगवत रह नृप रनिवासू ॥
पूजे गुरु-पद-कमल बहोरी । कीन्ह बिनय उर प्रीति न थोरी ॥
bhītara bhavana dīnha bara bāsu | mana jogavata raha nṛpa ranivāsū ||
pūje guru-pada-kamala bahorī | kīnha binaya ura prīti na thorī ||
बधुन्ह समेत कुमार सब, रानिन्ह सहित महीस ।
पुनि पुनि बन्दत गुरु चरन, देत असीस मुनीसु ॥
badhunha sameta kumāra saba, rāninha sahita mahīsa |
puni puni bandata guru carana, deta asīsa munīsu ||
