athi mOkam aLavip puLaka kongai kuzhaiyath thazhuvi inpa alaiyil thirivan enRum aRivEnO: obsessed with passionate thoughts, I hug their exhilarated breasts tightly and sink in the sea of carnal pleasure and get washed away by the waves; will I ever, at any time, attain Knowledge and find salvation?

* There are eight types of bird-sounds emanating from the throat of young women during passionate love-making:
peacock, pigeon, swan, turkey, crane, cuckoo, hen and beetle.

** Thiladhaippadhi is now known as KOyiRpaththu. It is in ThanjAvUr district, 3 miles southwest of PEraLam.
