c11.60
The keeper who has lost the huge elephant which he
[daily supplied
With its ample meal, and tended for many a year,
Is sad as he surveys the vacant pillar where it stood,
And weeps. Even so, did I not grieve when I beheld
The courtyard in the ancient town where Kiḷḷi lived and
[died;
Kiḷḷi, with wealth of chariots, o’er which waves the
[conqueror’s wreath?
