*************************

I very much agree with the above comments but hasten to state my posts

on Verse#4 of the kAmAsikAshtakam must NOT be regarded as anything more

than mere "musings" of a free-wheeling lover of Desikan's poetry. I

don't think there is anything remotely "scholarly" about them.

 

I often recite or mutter this delightful hymn to myself in a week ...

as I drive to work or as I take an evening stroll. But very rarely do I

actually reflect on phrases or expressions in the poem at length as I

have done on the "list" the past few weeks.

 

I am doing little more than just "thinking aloud" in my posts.

Please indulge me my small, harmless pleasures, if you don't mind.

Thank you, Sir,

adiyEn,

sudarshan
