     जाग्रतोरेव तां रात्रिं सौमित्रेरुदितो रविः।
     सूतस्य तमसातीरे रामस्य ब्रुवतो गुणान्॥

     jāgratoreva tāṃ rātriṃ saumitrerudito raviḥ.
     sūtasya tamasātīre rāmasya bruvato guṇān.

     While Saumitra (Lakshmana) was thus recounting Rama's excellences to Sumantra, keeping awake that whole night at the bank of Tamasa river, the sun rose.
