Nay? Are you coy? Then I will catch your hips
and hold you wild and shy
Until your very struggles set your velvet buttocks
all a-swing,
Until their music lulls you to unfathomable ecstasy,
O kissable Tarshitering!
Note.—This poem is probably the original of the well-
known Hindu love song :
‘** Thora thairo, Tenduk, thora thairo, tum !
Thora thairo, thairo thora, thora thairo, tum !”
