| A child aims shooting |
“I shall
also accompany with him for my safety, instead of being alone, while he parts
me to go earning”, she, your lover insists, the friend-maid of lady says to the
hero.
Sir,
you pleaded her permission to leave her for earning away. She sighs a long breath
in grievances. The she said to me let him take her along.
She is
well aware of the route you are going to pass through. The new passers-by will
eat the drying flash of the deer that remains after the tiger had eaten.
The Vaduga
family will eat bamboo rise cooked mixing with ghee placing on Teak-tree leaf. There
hunting area is also there. The children of their family will be there feeding
the ox, the leg of it had damaged in a landslide. There will be Irumbai fruits
falling on ground. Deer will try to eat the fruit. The children prevent hunting
with their play bow and arrow, gather the fruit and feed the lame ox. They will
be helpful to stay there in night. The area will smell with flowers. She, with
her hair in wet, desires to accompany with you.
By these
words, the friend-maid expects, he will avoid parting as the accompanying journey
is impossible.
