Paragraph 83

In plain words

As a man starts up as if stung by a scorpion and jumps to his feet in agitation, so Sri Ramakrishna sprang up, agitated, repeating "Govinda, Govinda". In a corner of the room stood a jar of Ganges water; it is still there. Panting, as if in alarm, he went to the jar, took the Ganges water and began to wash the place on his foot that the maidservant had touched.
