Rama observes Seethas foot prints

Rama and Lakshmana started southwards.They were walking with their heads bowed down. Rama observed some flowers on the ground.He recognised them at once.He turned towards Lakshmana and told him.Lakshmana!these flowers are definitely Seetha sflowers.I only brought them and gave them to her to adorn in her head.Dont you see? it is a wonder!Sun god,earth,and god of air,Vaayudeva have been protecting these flowers since then from wilting and drying.They wanted to help me in my quest for Seetha.He relaxed a little bit. He turned towards Prasravana mountain and made enquiries .O mountain king!Did you see any beautiful woman who was worrying and tensed up in my absence?His words reverberated and appeared as though the mountain was asking Rama that question.He asked again. O mountain!please show me my Seetha.Otherwise,I would destroy you and your riches.Mountain kept quiet.Rama lost his temper and threatened it that he would burn the mountain to ashes with his arrows. Rama, then,turned towards Lakshmana and told him that if the river did not answer him in the affirmative,he would definitely dry it.Just the, Rama saw something on the ground.He saw some demons large foot prints.He also observed Seethas footprints ,which showed that she was running hither and thither.Bow was found broken.Number of arrows were scattered on the ground.Chariot was found broken and lying on the ground. Rama turned towards Lakshmana and showed them to him.he also told this.Lakshmana!See!Gold powder from the ornaments of Seetha has fallen here.See these garlands.Blood smears are seen all over the ground.Lakshmana!did the demons kill Seetha and eat her.It seems two demons have fought for Seethas body.Who would have owned this bow which is broken and is lying on the ground?See this body shield.It is studded with diamonds,rubies and other precious stones. It is shining like Morning sun.
