We have found out now what thy service is like. You have thrown down the burden from your own head and laid a weight on the saints. You have set drums beating in your praise; what of that? Prove your right to it. I am a Wani by birth and cunning of heart; do not try any dodges with me. How can I dance before You, says Tuka, till I have some experience of you?
