Agananuru 135

Cleopatra with appealing complexion 
Eminent lover Adimanti in the history of the Tamils 2000 years ago
The lady reveals her feelings to her friend-maid. My appealing complexion is changing in sick-color. So my eyes are weeping with tears.
An interlude of historical event
The princess of King Karihalan the Great fell in love with an artist of synchronized swimming in the pond in River Cauvery at the village Kalar. The king and princess were watching the synchronized swimming game performed by Attan Atti, the one-side lover of the princess. Another girl Haveri by name was also playing with him. The flood of the river dragged them in its flow. The princess became mad by love. She went along the river bank searching him. She cried weeping he couldn’t have died. There are evidences about the girl-swimmer about her survival after flood carrying. Artist Atti was saved by a girl Maruti by name. Maruti and Atti loved each other. They lived together. Maruti came to know about love of the princess. She relinquished her love to the princess, handover him to princess and last her life falling in sea.
The heroine lady adds: I am mad as he is not with me.
By the attack of the heating sun and blowing wind Irumbai-fruit will fall on rock as tossing ball coins on the floor in Kalangu-game. He will be passing through such arid track.       
So, my heart is in trouble as Kamur, the capital of a famous king Kalivul was attacked by the alley of 14 kings of Velir family. What shall I do?
