> \[50\] Madhukaṇṭha said: "To explain: although endowed with all prosperity, this conversation took place between the couple in secret. As the glorious husband said: 'O mistress of the household! Resting on what do these people, overcome by grief, perform sacrifices and the like to comfort me? For when I form my resolve, the son my heart imagines is wondrous in every way. But he is supreme and entirely unprecedented—how could he become the object of an ordinary unprecedented desire? And the movement of my mind shrinks back from putting it into words elsewhere. For what form could possibly be sweeter than that of Śrī Nārāyaṇa, who is devoted to showing mercy toward me and is the fruit of studying the Vedas? It would be like a sky-flower compared to a Pārijāta flower.'"
