Mmgl Part 007-002 - Sudamadhi Stayed With Ascetics

These sounds disturbed her mind. So, peace Sudamadhi couldn't find. In that semi-darkness she moved. Chakravalam zone she reached. She crossed the big gate. The ascetics there she met. She stayed in a corner. Where none was there. A FEMALE DEITY BEFORE SUDAMADHI Sudamadhi saw opposite her A female deity in the pillar, Who suddenly came there, And started telling her. "As King Iravivanman's daughter In your previous birth you were. You married King Duchayan, And died of an accident then." "As Kowsikan's daughter In this birth born you're. You married Marudha Vegan. Now, you carefully listen." "On the seventh day, She shall, in anyway By midnight, be here. So, don't have any fear." The deity disappeared, But still Sudamadhi feared. Manimegalai came with her, But now separated from her. MORNING ARRIVED For the night security men To sleep it was their turn. Those still in soft beds They woke up from beds. The sounds of conchs Reached all corners. The chants of ascetics Mellowed the ears. The elephants called. The cocks crowed. The horses neighed. The birds chirped. The bees slowly hummed. The girl's bangles jingled. The prayer songs echoed. The flute and veena sounded. At their house front Several food items meant For free distribution to the poor Some neatly kept there. From the sea-horizon, Rose the morning sun. Tearing the darkness From its eastern base. GOING TO MADHAVI Like arrow pricked wound Suffered Sudamadhi's mind. Unmindful of the pain, She walked into the town. She met Madhavi and told Whatever that happened. On hearing Madhavi felt sad. Sudamadhi also then felt bad.
