निगृह्य रोषं शोकं च धैर्यमाश्रित्य केवलम्।
अवमानं निरस्येमं गृहीत्वा हर्षमुत्तमम्॥
उपक्लृप्तं हि यत्किञ्चिदभिषेकार्थमद्य मे।
सर्वं विसर्जय क्षिप्रं कुरु कार्यं निरत्ययम्॥

Lakṣmaṇa could control His fury and distress by always being sober and so on. Rāmacandra wanted Lakṣmaṇa to give up the feeling of being humiliated by having to go to the forest after canceling the coronation because He did not possess any weakness [due to which His coronation was cancelled and He was exiled to the forest]. He wanted Lakṣmaṇa to become perfectly happy by considering that by fulfilling [Their father’s] promise, They would deliver Their father. So He wanted Lakṣmaṇa to set aside His ornaments and so on and quickly do that faultless activity that needed to be done—by wearing bark and so on—to fulfill [Their father’s] promise.
GLOSS. [The glossator reads niravyayam instead of niratyayam] and indicates that the activity that needed to be done was an inexhaustible [act of piety].
