Thine eyes, which nature formed like blue water-lilies, are become through thy resentment like petals of the crimson lotus ! Thy silence affects me ; oh! speak with the voice of music, and let thy sweet accents allay my ardour ” \[543\]. - [Previous: v2.c27.s2.71](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v2.c27.s2.71) - [Next: v2.c27.s2.73](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v2.c27.s2.73) - [Up: v2.c27.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v2.c27.s2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v2.c27.s2.72](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v2.c27.s2.72) · Pramāṇa
