She will say: "You seem not to perceive this indeed, that those fortunate women are even now virgins. It was merely their illusory shadow-forms that were married elsewhere, and that too was just like a dream; because, as a transgression of social decorum, it is precisely those forms that are made to lie in beds and the like. What is this something that I am reporting to you with sorrow? Devoted solely to Him, they have maintained fortitude up to this day merely through comfort from people like me; but now they will be left with only their bodies abandoned by their life-breaths. Not only do I know this condition of theirs, but so does the entire community of Vraja; and that too was known somewhat earlier, but especially during their condition of profound distress when Kṛṣṇa departed for the place of the Vṛṣṇis. For the sages also will describe this.
