15.2

Did I alone fall in love with the Lord of Nannakar, deer-like maid? / Many young women have desired him, and sages' wives too have desired him, deer-like maid! / That maiden Mandodarī who lived in Southern Laṅkā, deer-like maid— / what penance did she do to reach and embrace his golden feet, deer-like maid?
...29
The same: viruttam
Fruit ripening at the root, carpels bursting at the base, and overflowing sweet honey / bursting forth as if the subterranean Gaṅgā had leapt upon the earth; / the spotless Lord holding court at Kuṟumpalā where sweet honey mixes into the swelling waters— / I am just one of the women who are infatuated with him, see!
...30
The friend interrogates Vasantavalli on propriety
viruttam
Vasantavalli, exuberant as spring! / Speaking word for word, / see, your color is paling and the town speaks slander! / You have placed desire on the Supreme Lord. / What claim is there for the eternal Lord of sacred Kuṟṟālam / who yields truth to unite with you? / Speak reasonably so that it fits!
...31
Vasantavalli speaks in sorrow
