See, Panduranga has played truant with me;
but I have seized his top-knot—even His

who shows himself shameless here. Who is the
wrong-doer here, O ye saints? We sinners do
shout aloud his name. Make Him renounce the
name of Purifier; in truth, it is we who purify our-
selves of our sins. We, no doubt, are the trans-
gressors; but what avail us the tales told of him
purifying men? Tuka says, Though we perish,
we shall not quit your feet, O ye saints!
