PURPORT
This verse (Vidagdha-mādhava 2.33) is written in the Prakrit language, not in Sanskrit. When transformed into Sanskrit, it reads as follows:
- dhṛtvā praticchanda-guṇaṁ sundara mama mandire tvaṁ vasasi
- tathā tathā ruṇatsi balitaṁ yathā yathā cakitā palāye
The meaning is the same, but the native language is different. It was spoken to Kṛṣṇa by Madhumaṅgala as he read Him a letter from Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī.
