vittathu salam ithu suththac chalam ini satRu ithu kidaipadum ena mAzhki: are all dismayed (looking at the wetness near the patient) wondering whether it is his urine or plain water; (talking among themselves) they conclude that the disease is about to make the patient bedridden;

thukkaththodu kodithu ottiye azhuthu azhal sutta: weeping with grief and feeling miserable, they approach the body;

kudamodu suttu eri kanalodu thokkuth thoku thoku thok ena idu paRai: in preparation for consigning the body to fire, they walk with a pot of fire against the background noise of drums sounding like "thokku thoku thoku thokku";

udal sattappada uyir satRu udan visiyathu thappil thavaRu uRum maththipa nadai ena uraiyAdi: as the body has totally deteriorated, talk prevails as follows - "Any moment, the bondage between the body and the soul is to break and when the rhythm stops, life will escape; and the pulse has now reached the lowest level";

saththippodu karam vaiththu idar thalai misai thappitRu ithu pizhai eppadi enum mozhi thaththa: amidst a lot of commotion, people, with their hands held on their heads in sorrow, spread around the word that with the pulse failing, there is no way the life can be saved;
