as some others caress one another blissfully,
as yet others pray to Yamuna Devi and

as yet others recount the stories of Krishna, (behold now...)

as the musk forehead-marks of some dissolve away,
as the flowers on the chignon of some slide down and
as the bracelets of others jingle, (behold now...)
