The friend-maid pleads her lady to
tolerate the loneliness when her lover is earning in a distant place. As a
reply the lady says these words to her friend-maid. The sun sets and night
comes. Bats are flying in the sky. The horse is neighing laughing at my
suffering. The time he pointed for his return has been elapsed. The owl sounds hoo
hoo sitting in Vembu tree. I am suffering from loneliness. Suppose the bird
Andril will also call its mate in night sitting in Palmyra tree to enhance my
sufferings.
