The circle widens, and into it enter two who by birth are strangers to Rāma: a monkey and a rākṣasa.
Sugrīva is set below Bharata, Vibhīṣaṇa below Śatrughna. That is, the allies are placed directly beneath the brothers, in one row with the royal kin.
Both are those to whom Rāma gave kingdoms, and both came to Him as exiles from their own brothers. Their place in the diagram says: the one who has come becomes one's own.
And Lakṣmaṇa is behind, dhṛta-cchatra sa-cāmara: with the parasol and the fly-whisk.
This deserves weighing. Lakṣmaṇa is the brother, the warrior, the one who in the tenth verse stood on the right with the bow and made up the first triangle. Here he is with a fly-whisk behind the back.
The change is no demotion. The parasol and the cāmara are the emblems of royal dignity, and they are held not by a servant but by the nearest one. In the forest a bow was needed; in the assembly — one who stands at the shoulder.
All those named before, then, are with Him — but each differently: one listens in front, some rule at the sides, one serves behind.
