The Recognition of Śakuntalā 1.166

Shakuntala (in Kalidasa, Translations of Shakuntala and Other Works) 1.166

Language: English

1.166

One tusk is splintered by a cruel blow
Against a blocking tree; his gait is slow,
For countless fettering vines impede and cling;
He puts the deer to flight; some evil thing
He seems, that comes our peaceful life to mar,
Fleeing in terror from the royal car.
