36Questioned in this way by the highest one, who had taken a body in play, the brahmin told him everything. 37Rukmini said: Beauty of the world, hearing of your qualities, which go in through the ears of those who hear and take the burning out of the body, and of your beauty, which is for the eyes of those who see the whole of what they want, my mind goes into you past all shame, Unfallen One. 38Mukunda, what steady girl of any house would not choose you for her husband when the time came, you who are equal only to yourself in family, character, beauty, learning, age, wealth and station, lion among men, the delight of the mind of the world of men?
39So I have chosen you for my husband, dear one, and I have given myself to you. Come and take me for your wife here, mighty one. Do not let the Cedi king be quick to lay a hand on the hero's share, as a jackal takes the lion's kill, lotus-eyed one.
