atiprauḍhoktiḥ, yathā padyāvalyāṃ (280)-
kākuṃ karoṣi gṛha-koṇa-karīṣa-puñja-
gūḍhāṅga kiṃ nanu vṛthā kitava prayāhi |
kutrādya jīrṇa-taraṇi-bhramaṇātibhīta-
gopāṅganā-gaṇa-viḍambana-cāturī te //

Exceedingly bold speech, as in the Padyāvalī (280):
“Why do you make plaintive cries, you who hid your body in the heap of dry cow-dung in the corner of the house? Depart in vain, O rogue!
Where today is your cleverness in mocking the young cowherd women who were terrified by the rocking of the decrepit boat?”
