Synopsis

The fifth chapter presents the uninterrupted text in Devanagari script along with Romanized transliteration. The Appendix presents the list of verses arranged in alphabetical order for ready reference, the names of the various flowers and plants mentioned in the text are listed along with their common and modern botanical names.

It is hoped that the exposition here will inspire modern readers to revisit India's rich heritage. This book is dedicated to all the classical singers and dancers so blessed as to be able to bring to life Jayadeva's composition again and again at every performance.
