Ramayana 2.247

Sumantra, at the chief's behest, Quick to the task himself addressed; Then near to Rama came, and showed The chariot ready for the road. With Sita, then, the princely two, Who o'er the line of Raghu threw A glory ever bright and new, Upon the chariot stood. Sumantra fast and faster drove His horses, who in fleetness strove Still onward to the distant grove, The hermit-haunted wood.
