मयागत्य पुनस्तत्र राजा वल्मीकजन्मने ।
निवेदितो महेन्द्रस्य राज्ञा मोक्षस्य साधनम् ॥ ४८ ॥

mayāgatya punastatra rājā valmīkajanmane |
nivedito mahendrasya rājñā mokṣasya sādhanam || 48 ||

I then went and explained my mission to the royal hermit, took him to the sage Valmiki (who had grown amidst the ant-hills), and to whom I delivered great Indra's charge for the king's practice (of the means) for his final liberation.
