Taking leave of Janaka and Dasharatha, Vishvamitra returns to his own hermitage and, accepting large presents, Dasharatha too turns back to Ayodhya along with his sons and their newly-wedded brides. On the way the irascible and redoubtable Parashurama, a sworn enemy of the Kshatriyas, suddenly appears before them, axe in hand, and Vasishta and the other sages accompanying the party offer worship to him.
