Note: In His reply Kṛṣṇa, of course interprets the word "candravali" in a way different from Rādhā's original intention. If the word "candravali" is interpreted to mean "a host of moons", Kṛṣṇa's reply would then read:
"O beautiful, delicate girl, why are You distressed for no reason. Even a host of full moons wilts with fear at the sight of Your beautiful face. O girl blinded with love, what then can a host of half moons do to You?"
