Śrī Rāma and Laksmana carry on the search for Sītā; Śrī Rāma gives vent to his grief over her disappearance; catching a hint from the deer, the two brothers proceed in a southerly direction; Śrī Rāma shows his anger towards the mountain; descrying the flowers dropped from the person of Sītā and particles of her ornaments as well as the vestiges of an encounter, Śrī Rāma ventilates his anger towards all the three worlds including gods.
