760. Then, as she cried, that delicate shaking hand of hers with
trembling fingers was somehow soothed by her friends by
blowing (on it) from their mouths. 761. Thus harassed by the bees, kissing their mouths, eyes,
breasts and hands, that group of beautiful girls came out from the pool in Godāvari.
762. In their midst (was) that charming maiden with her beau
tiful limbs, looking like Lakşmi surrounded by Apsarās
emerging from the churning (of the milky ocean). 763. With our eyes habituated to seeing (only) divine damsels,
O brother, we gazed at her again for long, with (special)
effort. 764. Her lotus-like feet, well-shaped (lit. well-established) with
non-protuberant ankles, had little delicate toes made
reddish by the gleam of her nails. 765. Her charming legs, as if made of gold of beauty, appeared
beautiful with very rare and fine hair, shapely form and
evenly built joints. 766. The thighs of that young maiden as delicate as a Sirişa
flower and remaining close together as if through fear of being separated by the burden of the lover, were shaped
like the trunk of an elephant-cub and looked attractive. 767. Her waist with deep navel and curved with delicate "trivali"
and with the line of down slightly visible (on it) was very thin (or insignificant) but charming like the pleasures of
worldly life. 768. Her youthful and plump bosom, solid with compactness
and raised-us expanse and resembling ripe coconuts, and
heavy with possiple further growth was quite worthy ! 769. She had arms, adorned by palms that were red like fresh
leaves of Asoka and resembling golden lotus-stems from Mandākini (the Divine river).
