21 Whether thej ever wash or not No fellow can determine. The arms of some above their head Are rigid held aloft ; Through hands tight clenched the linger nails Piercing the tendons soft. A form, scarce human to behold, Lives in the noonday sun, — Naked, deformed, it almost looks A living skeleton. On timid superstitious folk Their conscience knows no qualms In laying heavy burdens and Extorting grudging alms. A dirty Gosain's slippers laid Outside a peasant's door Will bar his way ; the abject... wretch Enters his house no more. To fast-closed door the mendicant Need only tie his toe ; For fear of Sivas^ wrath he gains Always a pice or two. 2. One of the Hindoo Triad, Brahma, Siva and A'ishnu. 22 New Lays of Ind.
