وكان كلامها رقيقًا مرتجفًا كصوت البجعة، ومشيتها كمشية فيلةٍ أنثى سكرى. عريضة الوركين، دقيقة الخصر، ذات شعرٍ طويل منسدل.
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa context)
Scene: The maiden walks with a slow, swaying, elephant-like gait; her long hair flows; her speech is imagined as soft, slightly trembling; the scene emphasizes movement—steps, hair, and the listener’s captivated attention.
By vividly portraying allure, the text prepares the listener to value self-mastery and dharma amid sensory attractions.
