In this episode, we relish how metaphors paint a vision of joy, as portrayed in Sangam Literary work, Natrinai 235, penned by an anonymous poet. The verse is set in the coastal landscape of ‘Neythal’ and speaks in the voice of the confidante to the lady, conveying the jubilant news of the man’s arrival to seek the lady’s hand in marriage.
