Paragraph 18

In plain words

Sri Ramakrishna: "I went to see Simhavahini. I saw the deity in the house of one of the Mallicks in the washermen's quarter. A tumbledown house. The family has become poor. Pigeon droppings here, moss there, and here the sand and brick-dust trickling down. The house has none of the grace I saw in the other Mallick houses." To M.: "Well, what is the meaning of this, tell me!"
