Love poem Kurunthogai # 308

Male elephant to heal the itch in head rubs a plantain tree. [Image] Thereby the tender leaf of the tree suffered. The itch is not healed. So the male suffered by reducing its strength. The female elephant massages the male by which it gets relief and sleeps on spring water flow.
In such a way lust is not one sided. It is reciprocal by marriage.     
 
Author of the poem is PERUNTHO:L HURUNJA:TTAN
2nd century B.C.
