atha śaṅkā, sā cauryeṇa, yathā-
harantī nidrāṇe madhubhidi karāt keli-muralīṃ
latotsaṅge līnā ghana-tamasi rādhā cakitadhīḥ |
niśi dhvānte śānte śarada-amala-candra-dyutim uṣā-
masau nirmātāraṃ sva-vadana-rucāṃ nindati vidhim //

Now, apprehension. It arises from theft, for example:
Stealing the playful flute from the hand of the slayer of Madhu as he slept,
and hiding in the lap of a vine in the dense darkness, Rādhā became apprehensive in mind;
and when the darkness ceased in the night, stealing the radiance of the spotless autumn moon
with the luster of her own face, she blamed the creator who fashioned her so.
