Chapter 15: Daśaratha Personally Instructs Sumantra to Bring Rāma
Text 2.15.27

राममानय सूतेति यदस्यभिहितोऽनया।
किमिदं कारणं येन ममाज्ञा प्रतिहन्यते॥

rāmam ānaya sūteti yad asi abhihito ’nayā
kim idaṁ kāraṇaṁ yena mamājñā pratihanyate

rāmam = Rāma; ānaya = bring; sūta iti = O sūta; yat = when; asi abhihitaḥ = has already told you; anayā = she; kim idam kāraṇam yena = why now; mama = my; ājñā = order; pratihanyate = are you disobeying.

“When she has already told you, ‘O sūta, bring Rāma!’ why are you now disobeying my order?
