"‘Upon seeing peacock feathers in front of Her, this girl suddenly begins trembling"

Sri Caitanya-caritamrta

CC Antya-lila

“‘Upon seeing peacock feathers in front of Her, this girl suddenly begins trembling. When She sometimes sees a necklace of guñjā [small conchshells], She sheds tears and cries loudly. I do not know what kind of new ecstatic influence has entered the heart of this poor girl. It has imbued Her with the dancing attitude of a player creating wonderful, unprecedented dances on a stage.’.
