And Lakshmaṇ, with affection meet,
Bowed down and clasped his mother’s feet.
Sumitrá viewed him as he pressed
Her feet, and thus her son addressed:
“Neglect not Ráma wandering there,
But tend him with thy faithful care.
In plain words: Lakshmana lovingly bows at the feet of his mother, Sumitra. She tells him to take faithful care of Rama in the forest.
