உண்டார்க்கண் அல்லது அடுநறக் காமம்போல்
கண்டார் மகிழ்செய்தல் இன்று (84)
In subsequent meetings, he gains her looks, glances and hears her words and expresses his experience that when he had a look at her, she modestly bent her head down and raised it and cast her looks upon him when he did not see her. Instead of looking straight at him she simply glanced at him once but it spoke volumes about her love. In the midst of a company of friends and others, she uttered some words as if she was unfriendly to him but after-thought confessed to him that it was a prudent warning lest anybody should learn the secrecy of their love. In another context, he had to hear some hot words from her lips though, at the same time, her looks were fall of love and encouragement. In course of time he understands that the looks of lovers pretend to be strange and their words appear to be unfriendly only in the presence of others.
