1.4.1

yamunā-tīra-vānīra-nikuñje mandaṃ āsthitaṃ |
prāha prema-bharodbhrāntaṃ mādhavaṃ rādhikā-sakhī ||

To Mādhava, who lingered quietly in a cane arbor on the bank of the Yamunā, bewildered by the weight of love, Rādhā's confidante spoke:

With listless limbs and spirit weak from love;--
And she sang this to Krishna wistfully:
