In Pharanasi (present-day Benares) the king Phrommathat had two sons named Phrommacak and Rammacak. The two princes having completed their learning at Takasila city decided to return to Pharanasi. On their way back Phrommacak met Sita who had been living with a hermit and took her as his wife. He was enthroned after he arrived home.
