Agananuru 165

Melancholy 
The heroine girl eloped with her lover. The nursing mother of the girl feels very much and weeps in melancholy.
A female elephant fell by mistake in a deep pit. Its male trumpets to get its female out of the pit. The newly born calf-elephant ran away in fear. It ran through a cow-dunk polished street of a village and drank milk in the breast of a cow. The eloped girl of good culture crossed some villages like this. The play-mates of the eloped girl wept in her absent. The flowers she grew in tubs were withered. There was her doll in the sand under the plant Mochi. The nursing mother of the eloped girl pick up the doll, decorated it with the withered flowers, placed it on her thigh, touched the head and eyes of the doll and weeps crying “Please hug me baby to save my life”.
