" The learned Sage, who loves to muse. And many a linked thought pursues. Says to himself, and heaves a sigh For things to come and things gone by. O that our restless chiefs, by misr'y school'd, Would rule their states as that brave woman rul'd !'* Yea, even children at their mothers' feet. Are taught such homely rhyming to repeat : — " In better days, from Brahma came, To rule our land, a noble Dame ; Kind was her heart, and bright her fame. And Ahalya was her honour'd name. " NOTES.
Note 1. ...Page 10.
" Close in her own his burming hands she prest. And to some povSr unseen were words like these addrest^ See in the first volume of Sir John Malcom's Central India, p. 159. — " He (the son of Ahalya Baee) had had slain in a jealous fury an embroiderer, who, he believed, had formed an intimacy with a female servant of his family. The innocence of the man was established, and remorse for the crime brought on so severe a paroxysm of madness in Mallee Row, as to alarm all for his life. It is a confirmed belief with many of the natives of India, that departed spirits have, on some occasions, the power of seizing upon and destroying the living.
