3.239

Now, beauty (śobhā):
Beauty is called the manifestation of their mutual nature by two young lovers.

3.239.p1

As in the Ratnāvalī, Sāgarikā (seeing the King, with joy, fear, and trembling, aside): "Seeing him, out of great fear I am unable even to move step by step. So what indeed shall I do here?"

3.239.p2

The clown (seeing Sāgarikā): "Oh, wonderful! Such a jewel of a maiden is not seen in the mortal world. Friend, therefore I reckon that even the Creator, having fashioned this, felt wonder again and again!"

3.239.p3

The King: "Friend, this very thought is in my mind as well" [before verse 2.15], and so forth: the manifestation of superior beauty through the mutual contemplation of Sāgarikā and the King of Vatsa is beauty (śobhā).
