An example:
“O best of the Yadus! Now our mother Yaśodā, because of pain sue to separation from You for a long time, is foaming at the mouth like the shore of the ocean. Her arms are moving about like waves in the ocean. She sometimes whirls about, sometimes rolls on the ground, makes sounds and sometimes remains motionless.”
