A History of the Mahrattas v1.c5.s4.31

v1.c5.s4.31

‘Brother, we have become a Gosāin and abandoned everything.
Pātel—build us here a chapel, bring bhāng and tobacco in plenty,
Provide daily food for me, and send a sister to serve me,
Tukā said that such devotion resembled the mask worn at the Shimga (annual Saturnalia).’
