In this episode, we observe the inner life depicted in Tamil Sangam Literary work, Natrinai 20, written by Orambokiyar, a poet who specialises in the ‘Marutham’ landscape or the farmland regions of ancient Tamil land. The focus of Marutham poems is on the love-quarrel between a man and his lady. This particular poem is expressed in the words of a lady to her man, disagreeing with his remark.
