Agananuru 158

She has threatened describing her excellence of beauty. Her nursing mother does this according to her friend-maid. The friend-maid says to her mother. You, my mother do not worry about her beauty. This is peaceful time at present after a heavy rain. On seeing your daughter’s ear ring it is lightning again. On seeing her hair it is cloud again to rain. On seeing her walk it is peacock stepping in dance to indicate rain again. These are not true. These are follies in your mind. There are some Damsels in our garden. It would have threatened you in dream or make you mad in daytime. If you say like this she will afraid. Usually if she hears owl’s voice she will afraid hugging you. Again there is nobody to make her in comfort. Her father is away on hunting with his dogs. Don’t taunt her.
