\u201cO playful one, Your erotic pastimes have caused My clothes and ornaments to fall off and scatter. My sakh\u012bs have not come yet, so why don\u2019t You quickly dress Me as before? Apply Your cleverness in decorating Me. You must beg forgiveness for offending Our cherished deity Ana\u1e45gadeva[2]<\/a> by taking him from the temple of Our minds for worship and not replacing him. You have not yet removed the fingernail scratches, the signs of Cupid\u2019s worship, from My body. Now please do it by applying musk and ku\u1e45kuma. Then You may reinstall Cupid in his proper place.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u015ar\u012b Krishna, the crest-jewel of relishers, replied,<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cO dearest! You have spoken correctly. Cupid is clearly visible on the throne of Your body. Therefore, I will now worship our i\u1e63\u1e6da-deva with cloth, ornaments, perfume, flowers, garlands and sandalwood paste.[3]<\/a>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

R\u0101dh\u0101\u2019s talented maidservants eagerly offered Krishna the clothing and ornaments suitable for Cupid\u2019s worship.<\/span><\/p>\n
