अङ्गदस्य वचः श्रुत्वा सुग्रीवः सचिवैः सह।
लक्ष्मणं कुपितं श्रुत्वा मुमोचासनमात्मवान् ॥ ४.३२.१ ॥

Hearing Aṅgada's words, and hearing that Lakṣmaṇa was angered, self-controlled Sugrīva rose from his seat with his ministers.

4.32.2

स च तानब्रवीद् वाक्यं निश्चित्य गुरुलाघवम्।
मन्त्रज्ञान् मन्त्रकुशलो मन्त्रेषु परिनिष्ठितः ॥ ४.३२.२ ॥

Having weighed the seriousness and the lightness of the matter, he—skilled in counsel and steadfast in deliberation—spoke these words to his ministers who knew counsel.

4.32.3

न मे दुर्व्याहृतं किंचिन्नापि मे दुरनुष्ठितम्।
लक्ष्मणो राघवभ्राता क्रुद्धः किमिति चिन्तये ॥ ४.३२.३ ॥

I have spoken no ill word, nor have I done any ill deed. Why is Lakṣmaṇa, the brother of Rāghava, angry? I wonder.

4.32.4

असुहृद्भिर्ममामित्रैर्नित्यमन्तरदर्शिभिः।
मम दोषानसम्भूतान् श्रावितो राघवानुजः ॥ ४.३२.४ ॥

मित्रं स्वस्थानकुपितं जनयत्येव सम्भ्रमम् ॥ ४.३२.६ ॥

सर्वथा सुकरं मित्रं दुष्करं प्रतिपालनम्।
अनित्यत्वात् तु चित्तानां प्रीतिरल्पेऽपि भिद्यते ॥ ४.३२.७ ॥

भ्रातरं सम्प्रहितवाँल्लक्ष्मणं लक्ष्मिवर्धनम् ॥ ४.३२.१२ ॥

वचनं मर्षणीयं ते राघवस्य महात्मनः ॥ ४.३२.१६ ॥

The harsh words spoken through another person by one who is afflicted and whose wife has been taken, you must bear with patience; they are the words of the great-souled Rāghava.

कृतापराधस्य हि ते नान्यत् पश्याम्यहं क्षमम्।
अन्तरेणाञ्जलिं बद्ध्वा लक्ष्मणस्य प्रसादनात् ॥ ४.३२.१७ ॥

कपीन्द्र युक्तं मनसाप्यपोहितुम्।
मनो हि ते ज्ञास्यति मानुषं बलं
सराघवस्यास्य सुरेन्द्रवर्चसः ॥ ४.३२.२२ ॥

O lord of monkeys, it is not fitting for you to disregard even in thought the command of Rāma and of Rāma's younger brother. Your own mind will come to know the human strength of this Rāghava, radiant as the lord of gods.
