Sexual Life in Ancient India: A Study in the Comparative History of Indian Culture v2.c11.57

- **Language:** English

### [v2.c11.57](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.meyer-1915.v2.c11.57)

Blow, O wind, where my beloved tarries,  
touch her first, and then me, too.  
In thee our bodies touch one another,  
in the moon our glances are united.¹  
I dive into the waters of the sea  
and sleep deep alone;  
there love's torments burn not  
the sleeper with glowing fire.
