pleasure, but due to its being borne alnong with poison, burns me. The sandal wood, bitten by make's teeth makes my body decay. The necklace (of pearls) that are produced along with salt shoots Love god's arrows towards me. The laturses, moon, sandalpaste and gems are praised by the world as cool, but none of them can put down the separation-fire. On the contrary they thoronghly destroy the body.//137
Some uselessly besmear the body with comphor and sandal-paste. The fire of separation from the dear one can be put down only by the dear one. There is not doubt about it.//138
The Rains The hot summer I passed somehow. The rains arrived, but O traveller, not my shameless darling. Terrible darkness pervaded the four derections. The heavy cloud in the sky thundesed profoundly. /139.
The terrifying lighting glictened in the sky. The walking track could be seen only in its....light. The rain birds thromghly satisfied with the rain-water were crying charmingly. The row of cranes flying in the sky under the fresh cloauds appeared beautiful.//140
The rivers, greatful heated by the mass of hot rays in the summer, cannot now centain in the Water rained by the Puskara Clouds. The travellers going in the flowing water had to carry the shoes in their hands. The tracks could be seen step by step in the light of the lightning glistening in the sky.//141
