PLATE SIX

“All the townspeople went to see the witness
Gopila, and when they saw the Lord actually standing
there, they all offered their respectful obeisances.
When the people arrived, they were very pleased to
see the beauty of Gopala, and when they heard that
He had actually walked there, they were all surprised.
Then the elderly brahmana, being very pleased, came
forward and immediately fell like a stick in front of
Gopala. Thus in the presence of all the townspeople,
Lord Gopala bore witness that the elderly brahmana
had offered his daughter in charity to the young
brahmana.” (pp.164-165)
