All of the kings groomed (i.e. prepared) themselves well before departure from their respective kingdoms. They were handsome, virtuous, of the proper age, of a high pedigree and of a noble clan, and were strong and accomplished. When they arrived in Janakpur with full pomp and pageantry, they were all in their finest of royal regalia and were accompanied by their royal armies. It looked then that whole court of Indra (the king of Gods) has come down (descended) on earth (to attend and witness the marriage ceremony of Sita, who was an incarnation of goddess Laxmi).
