मृदुस्वभावः सौमित्रिः प्रतिजग्राह तद्वचः ॥ ४.३६.१ ॥
Thus addressed by Tārā, Saumitri (Lakṣmaṇa), gentle of nature, accepted that humble speech joined with dharma.

लक्ष्मणात् सुमहत् त्रासं वस्त्रं क्लिन्नमिवात्यजत् ॥ ४.३६.२ ॥
When Lakṣmaṇa had accepted those words, the lord of the monkey hosts cast off his great fear of Lakṣmaṇa, as one sheds a wet garment.

Lakṣmaṇa was pleased, and with affection he spoke these words.
