Kālidāsa's Raghuvaṃśa 12th Sarga - 85

 जय श्रीराम!




तमाधूतध्वजपटं व्योमगङ्गोर्मिवायुभिः । 
देवसूतभुजालम्बी जैत्रमध्यस्त राघवः ॥१२.८५॥

Notes: Kālidāsa says, Śrīrāma leant on the shoulder of the divine charioteer who had brought that exquisite chariot, with the flag fluttering in the breeze stirred up in the skies by the holy river Gaṅgā ( who had come down to earth too, long ago, by the efforts of another Ikśvāku king, Bhagīratha), as Śrīrāma climbed on to the chariot and took his seat.
