Where wan rills warble over glistening marble;

Cold jewels, and the sandal, moist and sweet--

These for the time are meet

Of "Suchi," dear one of the bright days, bringing

Love songs for singing which all hearts enthrall,

Wine cups that sparkle at the lips of lovers,

Odors and pleasures in the palace hall:

In "Suchi" these befall.

For then, with wide hips richly girt, and bosoms

Fragrant with blossoms, and with pearl strings gay,
