PLATE NINE
“Lord Caitanya mistook a garden for Vṛndāvana and very quickly entered it. Absorbed in ecstatic love of Kṛṣṇa, He wandered through the garden in the mood of the  gopīs . After Kṛṣṇa disappeared with Rādhārāṇī during the  rāsa  dance, the  gopīs  wandered in the forest looking for Him. The  gopīs  said, ‘O  cūta  tree,  priyāla  tree,  panasa ,  āsana  and  kovidāra!  O  jambū  tree, O  arka  tree, O  bel ,  bakula  and mango! O  kadamba  tree, O  nīpa  tree and all other trees living on the bank of the Yamunā for the welfare of others, please let us know where Kṛṣṇa has gone. We have lost our minds and are almost dead. O  tulasī!  O  mālatī!  O  yūthī ,  mādhavī  and  mallikā!  Kṛṣṇa is very dear to you. Therefore He must have come near you. You are all just like dear friends to us. Kindly tell us which way Kṛṣṇa has gone and save our lives!’ ” ( pp.266-272 )
