rāsa-kelir ajaniṣṭa jāgaraṃ
sa sphuṭaṃ bhavatu tat-kathā tathā |
kāraṇaṃ bhavati yasya yad-vidhaṃ
tasya tad-vidhatayā matā sthitiḥ || [rathoddhatā]

The sport of the rāsa-dance brought about sleeplessness;
clearly its narration should do the same.
In whatever manner a cause exists,
its effect is deemed to have a condition of that very nature.
