*“ এতই রূপের রূপসী রাই, আমি নয়ন ভরে দেখি নাই। যখন বঁধুর বামে দাঁড়াইত, আবার হেসে হেসে কথা কহিত, side of Kṛṣṇa, and smiled, and talked, how beautiful did she look! Kṛṣṇa, lying on a bed of flowers, would seem to wear her on his bosom, as one wears a precious necklace. Alas, she, the beloved of Kṛṣṇa, now lies in the dust! How fine, how peerless are her feet that Kṛṣṇa was never weary of praising, those feet that he would softly touch to paint with scarlet alta. When these tender feet would trip over the thorny paths of the forest to meet with Kṛṣṇa, one could almost have wished to place her own bare bosom on the road, so that she might have stepped on it."
