1.3.13

bhrū-pallavaṃ dhanur apāṅga-taraṇgitāni bāṇā guṇaḥ śravaṇa-pālir iti smareṇa |
tasyām anaṅga-jaya-jaṅgama-devatāyām astrāṇi nirjita-jaganti kim arpitāni ||

Thou gavest her those black brows for a bow
Arched like thine own, whose pointed arrows seem
Her glances, and the underlids that go--
So firm and fine--its string? Ah, fleeting gleam!
Beautiful dream!
Small need of Kama's help hast thou, I trow,

Edwin Arnold 1875, The Indian Song of Songs
