"Aho! When even highly elevated saints of firm resolve are unable to directly perceive You even slightly, isn't it astonishing that I who am lower than a worm have nevertheless entertained the desire that You might be visible before my eyes, shameless and brazen creature that I am."

"Aho! O Sovereign Empress and Emperor of Vrindavan. Is it my fault? After all, who is there who has not become inebriated to the point of ecstatic madness by the elegance of Your eternally fresh charm, an abundance of noble virtues of the highest excellence?"

[ Srila Rupa Goswami, Utkalika-vallari, texts 35,36 ]
