Act III ] 28 pp. 39-41
ARANY — (With a smile) Kánchanamálá, having
played for a long time I feel exhausted So I shall
not be able to play
KANCH — Preceptor the Princess is greatly fatigued
See how drops of perspiration are formed on her cheeks
and her fingers (or fore-hands) tremble So let her
be refreshed (by resting) for a short while
KING — Kánchanamála you have said what is proper
(Wishes to seize her by the hand Arany withdraws her
hand)
VASAVA — (Sarcastically) Lady this also has been
overdone by you I am not certainly Kánchanamalá that
can be misled by (such) composition [Or I should
not be deceived (misrepresented) by Kánchanamalá's
dramatic speech]
SAMKR — (Smiling) O you of long life dramatic compo-
sition must be of this nature
ARANY — (With seeming anger) Go away Kanchan,
go away I do not like you
KANCH — (With a smile) If you do not like me
standing here here I walk off (Starts to go)
ARANY — (In confusion) Kánchana stay stay,
here is the fore-hand offered to him
KING — (Taking the hand of ARANYIKA)
Can it be a lotus bud at once cooled by the contact of
dew drops? Not such methinks is its power to delight
(now) It has it at dawn only when it is left by (free
from) the sun are there five moons in the form of fingers
shedding a shower of coolness (or dew) Even that
(the shower) burns (causes affliction) I know it—this
is clearly ambrosia flowing under the guise of
perspiration (11)
By you moreover is implanted in my heart this Rága
(passion—redness) with your hand clever in robbing
the tender coral sprout of its beauty (12)
ARANYIKA — (Exhibiting the peculiar sensation of touch)
Oh fie oh fie! my limbs commit a havoc in me
(experience a thrill of overpowering emotion) as I touch
this Manoramá
