Rādhā: (Aside) This is is the same flute which causes the gopīs' hands to become numbed when they perform their household duties. At nightime this flute attracts the golden-complexioned gopīs, even from their husband's laps. This flute loosens the gopīs tight belts, even in the presence of their superiors. This rascal flute, the property of Kṛṣṇa, the auspiciousness of Gokula, is now under my control.
