> (2.9) Sāgarikā | With tears | I have drawn him. But why can my eyes not manage to look, filled with falling tear-water? | Looking up and wiping her tears, seeing Susaṃgatā, covering \[it\] with her upper garment, looking and smiling | How! Susaṃgatā! Friend Susaṃgatā, sit here.  
> (2.10) Susaṃgatā | Sitting down and looking at the board | Friend, who is this you have drawn?  
> (2.11) Sāgarikā | Friend, surely it is the divine god of love, whose festival has begun.  
> (2.12) Susaṃgatā | With wonder | Ah, your skill! But why does the picture seem somehow empty? So I too will draw and give him Rati as mistress. | Taking the brush, she acts out drawing.  
> (2.13) Sāgarikā | Looking, angrily | Friend, why have you drawn me here?  
> (2.14) Susaṃgatā | Friend, why do you get angry for no reason? Just as you drew Kāmadeva, so I drew Rati. So, suspicious woman, what is the use of this evasive talk? Tell me the whole story.  
> (2.15) Sāgarikā | Bashfully, to herself | My dear friend has indeed found me out! | Aloud | Dear friend, my embarrassment is great indeed. So act in such a way that no one else will find out this matter.  
> (2.16) Susaṃgatā | Friend, do not be ashamed, do not be ashamed. A jewel of a maiden such as you must inevitably have a desire for such a bridegroom. Even so, I will see to it that no one else learns of this matter. But this clever myna bird might be a cause of trouble here; for she might catch the syllables of this conversation and recite them in front of someone.  
> (2.17) Sāgarikā | Friend, from this too my anguish burns even more.
