Sri:
SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,
Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:

229. prathyAgathasya BhavathIm avalOkya Bharthu:
pAdhAravindasaviDhE BharathOpanIthAm
pUrvABhiShekaviBhavABhyuchithAm saparyAm
maDhyE sathAm akrutha maIthilarAjakanyA

Oh Paaduka! Sita was observing You being brought by Bharata near the 
lotus feet of Rama. She felt that she should pay homage to You for 
being the first to receive the coronation. She accordingly paid her 
respects to You in the presence of the elders.

Namo Narayana,
SriMuralidhara Dasan

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan(V.S):
***********************************

1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Here Swamy Desikan 
refers to SitA Devi's salutations to Her husband's
Paadhukais that had ruled AyOdhyA for fourteen years. 
She was travelling at the time towards AyOdhyA in
the Pushpaka VimAnam and saw the procession of the Paadhukais
towards AyOdhyA on the royal elephant's back. She offered
Her worship , since the PaadhukAs had been consecrated by 
Sage VasishtA and others through the coronation bath and 
subsequent ceremonies for becoming the ruler of the KosalA
nation. She offered Her worship to the present ruler.

2) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! BharathAzhwAn
presented the Paadhukais to Your Lord on His victorious
trip to LankA. SitA PirAtti offered Her salutations to
You in the middle of the Raaja Sabhai , since You have
already been coronated by Sage VasishtA as the reprensative
of RaamA to rule the kingdom.

3) Mythila Raaja KanyA (SitA PirAtti) glanced at Her
Lord's Paadhukais , which were placed by BharathAzhwAn 
with reverence near the lotus feet of Her Lord , 
who had returned to AyOdhyA as a victor ( PrathyAgathasya 
Bharthu: Paadaaravindha savidhE , Bharatha upaneetham 
BhavathIm avalOkya).She immediately recognized the Vaibhavam 
of the Paadhukais as those , which have already been 
consecrated with PattAbhishEkam by the Kula Guru,
VasishtA and hence performed Her PoojA to them 
in an appropriate manner in front of all the great ones 
assembled in the court hall ( PoorvAbhishEkaka Vibhava 
abhyuchitham saparyAm sathAm madhyE akrutha)...V.S
