for him to tell her --show her-- she was more beautiful than any illusion :) --whether sultry demoness or gem-studded deer. maybe that for starters? love this question-poem, allowed me to look past my judgment of her vanity or greed

Umm...to see his courage and commitment and willingness to do whatever it takes to please her. I don't know who Sita is, but definitely sounds like a woman.

Yes, indeed there is a symbolism in that, Valmiki surely intended it, 
you are right..and thereby hangs a tale!
