13. Thiruppoovalli “Singing how He planted His flowery Feet in my heart as I have been praising and serving Him for many a day and how He, abiding as beauteous Flame and tearing the fibres of my stony heart made me His and how His jewelled twin Feet turned into gold for me, letus pluck flowers of lily". (13:9) “Singing of the Puram fought by the Lord of Perumthurai, of Kaabaali Who ate with pleasure the poison from the darkened sea and of Him Who placed His excellent Feet on my head so that this frame, the mere mass of fierce desires may cease to be, let us pluck flowers of lily". (13:10) “The tinkling jewelled Feet of the Lord, the transcendentally transcendent Being Who, cooling His fiery Form as One made of milk, ambrosia and honey, took possession of my mind, are the right goal for those of the world Who praise the Lord. Singing the fame of that very Goal, let us pluck flowers of lily”. (13:11) 459
