Gita Press English

She feasted Her eyes to their fill on Ýr¶ RŒma’s beauty; but then the thought of Her father’s vow agitated Her mind. She said to Herself.” Alas, my father has made a terrible resolve having no regard to good or evil consequences. The ministers are afraid; therefore none of them gives him good counsel. It is all the more pity that it should be so in a conclave of wise men. While on this side stands the bow harder than adamant, on the other side we find that dark-complexioned prince of delicate frame and tender age. How then, O god, can I maintain my balance of mind? Is a diamond ever pierced with the pointed end of a Ýir¶ƒa flower? The sense of the whole assembly has become dull; hence my only hope now lies in you, O Ýambhu’s bow. Imparting your heaviness to the assembly grow light yourself at the sight of (in proportion to the size of) Ýr¶ RŒma.” S¶tŒ felt much agitated at heart; an instant hung heavy on Her as a hundred Yugas. (1—4)
