- **Language:** English

### [c8.s3.71](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.foxstrangways-1914.c8.s3.71)

I know, I know thee, O thou Bideshini¹; thou dwellest on the other shore of the ocean. I have seen thee in the autumn, I have felt thee in the spring night. I have found thee in the midst of my heart, O thou Bideshini. Putting my ear to the sky² I have heard thy music, and I have offered to thee my life, O thou Bideshini. I have roamed all through the world and have come at last into the strange country. Here I am a guest at thy door, O thou Bideshini.³
