The mother-in-law blessed Her in gentle accents and felt distressed when she regarded Her most delicate frame. With Her head bent low S¶tŒ, who was beauty personified and cherished unalloyed love towards Her Lord, sat reflecting, “The lord of my life would depart to the forest; it has yet to be seen who will have the good fortune to accompany Him—my body and soul together or my soul alone. What God intends to do cannot be foreseen even partly.” As She scratched the ground with the lovely nails of Her toes, Her anklets produced a musical sound, af if—so declare the poets— they lovingly prayed that S¶tŒ’s feet may never abandon them. Seeing Her shed tears from Her charming eyes, Ýr¶ RŒma’s mother broke the silence: “Listen, my dear child: S¶tŒ is exceedingly delicate and the pet of her father-in-law and mothers-in-law and the whole family.” (1—4)
