Natrinai 181

Sparrow
Sparrow built its nest inside the slop of a thatched house. The male sparrow went outside and spent some time with a finch. When the male sparrow returns back to its house-nest, the female deny the male enter to touch its young ones spreading its wings as Ingai plant with flowers. The male waits outside wet in rain. On seeing this, the female bird in its mercy calls the male inside. It is evening when the light is fading. At that time, the chariot of the hero comes without alarm. The horses pulling the chariot are wearing flower garlands, which will not make sound. The time comes to her lady to regain her beauty in her fore-head. The friend-maid says to her lady.
