Rama asks his companions, led by Bhadra, what the people say of him

Full sarga summary

Rama asks his companions, led by Bhadra, what the people say of him -- pressed to speak frankly, Bhadra reports the citizens' scandal: they fault Rama for taking back Sita, who had dwelt in Ravana's Lanka, and fear they must now tolerate the like in their own wives -- stricken, Rama confirms the report and dismisses his friends.
