i 120
S. T: Nimkar
1270. In case of one girl, seeing that it was of no use to decorate
her cheeks (already) reddened by the intoxication of wine, her lover removed the fresh Asoka leaf (hanging) from her
ear. 1271. The beloved drank the wine put to her mouth by the
lover with his own hand (lit. by the hand of the lover), as it wiped off (his) guilt and uprootca the tree of (her)
haughteur. 1272. Passionately enjoying the pleasure of kissing (lit. drinking)
each other's lips, the Siddha couples took up the wine
bowls after a long time, with embarrassed countenances. 1273. Some passionate girl drank sip by sip for a long time,
the nectar-like wine that was left over in her lover's cup (lit. after being drunk by her lover) as this (act of hers)
was angrily looked at by her rivals. 1274. Singing to the rhythm of their own hand-clappings, dancing
to the tune of the drums of their mouths, and laughter of these graceful women appeared charming as also their
happily adorned faces. 1275. With their waist garments slightly loosened, with their
girdles slipped, with their upper garments dropping down and with their hair and Tilaka-marks slightly dishevelled,
the slightly intoxicated beauties looked marvellous. 1276. Thus, when all those Siddhas, Gandharvas and Yaksas
were revelling in the intoxication of drinks on the evening
of the third day that Silāmegha came. 1277. Together with his wife, he sat down immediately in front
of all those. Vidyādhara Kings and others, gathered
together in one place. 1278. Greeting him (lit. embracing him), My Beautiful One,
all of them said to that Silāmegha, “You have the pleasure
of meeting (lit. seeing) your beloved daughter now”. 1279. So, along with Saradaśnı he went to his beloved daughter's
residence, and, O My Beauty, he saw Lilavati (there).
