TRANSLATION

After planning how to get the she-goat out of the well, the lusty
he-goat dug up the earth on the well’s edge with the point of his
horns in such a way that she was able to come out very easily.

PURPORT

Attraction for woman is the impetus for economic development, hous-
ing and many other things meant for living comfortably in this material
world. Digging up the earth to make a way out for the she-goat was a
laborious task, but before accepting the she-goat, the he-goat underwent
this labor. Aho grha-ksetra-sutapta-vittair janasya moho ’yam aham
mameti. The union between male and female provides the impetus for
gaining a nice apartment, a good income, children and friends. Thus one
becomes entangled in this material world.
