THE INDIAN ANTIQUARY.
(DECEMBER, 1910.
Translation. O Demon, thou didst not heed any advice and stole away another's wife. He whose wife, Janaki, thou hast stolen away knows the heart of every one. Do away with thy pride and take hold of his feet. Understand it, thou vain one, O Demon, thou didst not heed any advice. Tho Rajâs leaving their rule and the Ranis leaving their toilet come to the Raja's (Ram's)
aid.
Vrahma from the study of Vedas and Nárad, the wisest ascetic (come to Ram's aid). O Demon, thou didst not heed any advice, and didet steal another's wife.
(Râm has an army) of nine akshohani and eighty-eight padm of men. Hanuman is at the head.
The flag-staff has been set up in the sand and the red flag is waving. O Demon, thou didst not heed any advice, and didst steal another's wife. Mandodari says : My lord Rawan listen to me, give up the use of bitter language.
On the day Raghunandan Râm Chandra) attacks you in anger he will grind you down as the oil-maker grinds seeds."

Text. Sasure tom ko jâna hai. Kbel khilauna lagain ati pyare ; gurian men chit shûna hai. Sasure tum ko jân& hai, Sang sakhî kon kam na aibain; mata pitâ chhut jân& hai. Sasure tum ko jânå bai. Abhin kumari buddhi thori. Byâh bhaên ras prâna hai. Sasure tum ko jânâ hai. Piya sang mel bhayo tin ko sab, dubidhá bharm Dasana hai. Sasure tum ko jân& hai. Shankar sharan gahen Sat Guru ko, sahajahin me piya pâna hais
Translation. You must go to your father-in-law's house. Your toys seem now very dear to you and your heart is in your dolls. You must go to your father-in-law's house. No companion or friend shall be of any use there and even the parents shall be left behind. You must go to the father-in-law's house.
Now, you are a maid with little wisdom. But when you are married you will find much pleasure.
You must go to your father-in-law's house. Those who have met their beloved have lost their doubts and apprehensions. You must go to your father-in-law's house.
Shankar says that a woman who throws herself on the mercy of the True Guide obtains her beloved.
