राम के अंगूठे के स्पर्श से शिला बनी अहिल्या का उध्दार होता हैं. वही मिथिला से दूर पंचवटी में बैठी शूर्पणखा रावण से प्रतिशोध लेने की योजना बना रही हैं.

राम धनुष्य को तोड़ पण जीतता हैं और राम-सीता की विवाह होती है. बारात बाजे गाजे के साथ अयोध्या आती हैं. और रावण अपने गर्वहरण के बाद अब कौन सा नया खेल रचेगा?

राम लक्ष्मण मिथिला घुमने निकलते हैं, सीता अपने सखियों के साथ देवी के मंदिर में पूजा करने निकलती हैं. राम और सीता की भेंट होती हैं. अगले दिन स्वयम्वर के लिए महाराज जनक पण की घोषणा करते हैं.

ऋषशृंग मुनि के परामर्श से अयोध्या के महाराज दशरथ को राम, लक्ष्मण, भरत और शत्रुघ्न चार पुत्रों की प्राप्ति हुई. वही रावण के यहाँ मंदोदरी ने मेघनाद को जन्म दिया, जिसका आवाज मेघो के समान भयंकर था. मिथिला में भुमिकन्या सीता धीरे धीरे बड़ी हो रही थी.
