The friend-maid points her lady’s
lover, the love-rendovaz to meet her lady.
You are passing the daytime in the
littoral park up to evening when the sun sets in western hills. It is the
period when day and night mingles as two Gods in one figure appears. Bee eats
honey in water-lilies and disappears at this time. After you left her she feels
very much. Please stop your chariot aside for a time; and let your horse take
rest. Look at the sand dune appearing as elephants come from mountain; there
you can see a Palmyra tree. Bird crane and bird ‘Antril’ are living on the
tree. That is our house-yard. Flowers ‘Punnai’ make the yard as flower bed. You
can get her enjoyment on the flower bed, if you come in night-time.
