Blessed, blessed is this life—look, friends, upon Raghubar's beauty! Maharaja Dasharatha has come to dine with all four sons beside him: embodiments of love, four moons who ensnare the mind. My eyes are spellbound beholding them—look well upon their beauty! Wash their feet and seat them before the platters. Adorn the leaf-plates with jewels; serve what pleases them—vegetables and every savory dish—and over it all pour the rasa of affectionate abuse. The delicacies are beyond counting! If the wedding party cannot eat its fill, why did you not bring your own wives, your sisters, your paternal aunts, and your father's sisters? Who would fail to steal away their youth? Let us test and see! Among three hundred and sixty women there is only one man; even after a hundred days there will be no escape. Janaka, give him another two or four! Your fame would fill the world if you kept him here as our bridegroom—listen, and see! The companions sing their gari and offer themselves again and again—to the figures of all four mothers, to their graceful bearing, their lovely smiles, and the delighted glances with which Mod watches them, never looking away.
