Ram's thanks
When Hanuman comes back with news of Sita, Ram embraces him and says he has no way to repay him. We have not traced the comparison with Bharat to this scene. The closest line we've found is in the Ramcharitmanas, Uttar Kand, where Ram says it to Guha, the Nishad chief: "तुम्ह मम सखा भरत सम भ्राता".
