Natrinai 253

The friend-maid advises the man of her lady’s lover.
You, my lord, you are sighing as an elephant lies sleeping, when you happened to see birds returning home and couples walking in thought of your, my lady. Please fallow my words. At present she is unreachable, in house arrest of her mother, as the mountain of King Pari. Pari is a philanthropist. He enjoys toddy with others in Palmyra leaf-cups. His mountain is famous for jack-fruits. But it is not approachable by enemies. As the mountain she is unreachable.
Marriage bond is the only way for you to get her, she advises.
 
sleeping elephant
