Add 15296 (1) f.121r, Rama is seated on a mat facing the two brothers, with the three queens and Sita on his right. Bharata continues to urge Rama to return to Ayodhya to be crowned, arguing that their father had sinned against him for fear of his wife's wrath. But Rama still refuses, citing Kaikeyi's right to insist on the two boons promised by Dasaratha, and their duty to fulfil them, and he instructs Bharata to return to Ayodhya to be installed lest their father end up in hell. Vasistha and Sumantra, with Laksmana between them, are seated in front. Vasistha also trieSita persuade Rama to return with them by claiming that in the unbroken line of descent of the Iksvaku dynasty only the eldest son had ever become king, but Rama cites obedience to his father's command as a higher duty. Bharata says that he is unfit to govern the kingdom and that he will Ramain in the forest instead of Rama, but again Rama cites the absolute imperative of a parent's command.

Add 15296 (1) f.90r, The princes go off to meet their other mothers in their zenana, but Kausalya and Sumitra, dressed in mourning saris of red and yellow, having heard of their return, have already set off to meet them. Kausalya reproaches Bharata for having cheated Rama out of his kingdom, but having assured her of his innocence in the matter and having bitterly cursed the person responsible for Rama's exile, he falls fainting at Kausalya's feet. She accepts his assurances. In the morning, in a pavilion where the two queens, two princes and various ministers are seated, Vasistha advises Bharata to cease his lamentations and begin his father's funeral rites.

Add 15296 (1) f.96r, Bharata and Shatrughna have performed their father's funeral rites and fourteen days later, after the prescribed period of mourning, the priests headed by Vasistha and ministers bring the necessary articles for coronation to Bharata in the throne-room. Bharata is seated on a small throne, not the elaborate one occupied by his father, with the urn with his father's ashes at the front. The floor is covered by a rich carpet in Mughal style. The chiefs of the army stand on the other side of Bharata and his brother. Bharata refuses to be crowned and announces that he will bring Rama back from exile and stay in the forest himself for fourteen years. He orders the army chiefs to prepare the way for him and the whole court to seek out Rama and bring him back to Ayodhya.

On the left, Rāma is installed as king by the priest Vasiṣṭha, who anoints his brow with sacred marks, while Åšatrughna holds the imperial parasol and the two other brothers hold chowries (fly-whisks). SugrÄ«va had previously sent the monkeys to gather water from the four seas and all the important rivers, which they hold here in golden jars for the coronation ritual. On the right, Rāma, with Sītā beside him on his throne, dispenses gold and jewels to his helpers, all in human form. One of his ministers hands Rāma a necklace of magnificent pearls for Sītā, and she unclasps her own necklace, which she gives to the incomparably wise and valiant Hanumān.

Add 15296 (1) f.127r, The procession returns to Ayodhya, along the bottom of the painting, the sorrowful and deserted city being the haunt of cats and owls. Bharata and Shatrughna take their leave of the queens and tell Vasistha that they will retire to Nandigrama and are resolved to live as ascetics until Rama's return. They stay out, at the top, in one chariot in the reverse direction, followed by Vasistha and Sumantra in another chariot and attended by townspeople.

Add 15296 (1) f.11r, Dasaratha, enthroned in durbar, tells the Brahmins Vasistha and Vamadeva and his minister Sumantra of his intention to resign his throne to Rama as regent; on the left, these three summon Rama and Laksmana. Above, four Brahmins begin to prepare for the requisite sacrifice and a beautifully caparisoned horse and elephant are led towards the palace, indicative of the long list of what Vasistha says is necessary. Four women out in the open talk to each other.

In a series of three compartments on the right, Rāma is seen conversing with his brothers, VibhÄ«á¹£aṇa and a sage (presumably Vasiṣṭha but this is premature as they would have to have reached Ayodhyā first), with the monkeys still in human guise below them and two grooms holding horses in the lowermost compartment. On the left, the procession sets out for Ayodhyā with Rāma and his wife and brothers in one chariot drawn by two white horses, Åšatrughna waving the chowrie, surrounded by nobles on elephant, horseback and camelback. The four brothers have now assumed crowns.

Add 15296 (1) f.2r, In the throne room at Ayodhya (right), King Dasaratha is seated with his four sons, his minister Sumantra and his chief priest Vasistha. Yudhajit, Queen Kaikeyi's brother and Bharata's maternal uncle, has come to take Bharata to visits his maternal grandfather King Kaikeyi, and the inseparable Shatrughna wants to go along too. The two princes respectfully take leave of their father Dasaratha. They then make their way to the zenana (left), are greeted by the doorkeeper and say farewell to their mothers. One of the queens reaches out affectionately to both boys.

Add 15296 (1) f.14r, On the right, Dasaratha again tells Rama he will make him king, with Vasistha, Laksmana, another Brahmin and ministers in attendance. Rama and Laksmana then leave the king to call on Kausalya on the left, who, dressed in white, is worshipping a small, gold image of Visnu, with Sumitra beside her. As a portent of impending disaster, their meeting is spied on by Kaikeyi's maid Manthara from a window in the high wall. Below, Rama and Laksmana then depart to their palace in a chariot to prepare for the ceremony amidst general rejoicing, and to the accompaniment of the drums and trumpets that announce royal arrivals and departures.

Add 15296 (1) f.24r, Kaikeyi is first seen on the left sleeping dishevelled, as in the previous picture, and then rises from her bed to persuade her husband to grant her the two boons that Dasaratha had earlier promised her. On the right, Dasaratha is first seen bemused, seated on a couch as he listens to her demand that her son Bharata be promised the throne and Rama be exiled for fourteen years; and then distraught, below, kneeling at Kaikeyi's feet beseeching her to change her mind. Sumantra, in the middle, has been sent at dawn by Vasistha to summon Dasaratha to the coronation.
