Glorifying the evening shades that had now fallen, Anasuya sends away Sita, decked with ornaments bestowed on her by herself, to the presence of Sri Rama. To the latter, who was agreeably surprised to behold Sita resplendent with heavenly jewels, she relates how she received the jewels as a loving gift from the hermitess. Accepting the hospitality of the hermits and staying with them for the night, Sri Rama asks leave of them in the morning to proceed further and, following the route shown by the hermits, the princely party enters the Dandaka forest.
