In this episode, we appreciate the richness of metaphor and imagery in Sangam Literary work, Natrinai 125, penned by an anonymous poet. The poem is set in the ‘Kurinji’ landscape or mountain country and speaks in the voice of the confidante to the lady, consoling and advising her with regard to the man’s delay in seeking a formal union.
