Shakuntala (in Kalidasa, Translations of Shakuntala and Other Works) 1.58

Language: English

1.58

The meanest vesture glows
On beauty that enchants:
The lotus lovelier shows
Amid dull water-plants; The moon in added splendour
Shines for its spot of dark;
Yet more the maiden slender
Charms in her dress of bark.
