ब्रह्मन्कोऽस्य सुहृद्ब्रूहि येनासौ रमते सह ।
रमणं किंस्वभावं स्यादुत रत्यात्म वास्य तत् ॥ १ ॥

śrīrāma uvāca |
brahmanko'sya suhṛdbrūhi yenāsau ramate saha |
ramaṇaṃ kiṃsvabhāvaṃ syāduta ratyātma vāsya tat || 1 ||

Rama said:—Tell me sir, who is that friend with whom he lives, and what is the nature of this enjoyments, whether it is subjective or objective, that is whether derived from within oneself, or from external objects.
