[INDOLOGY] A distraction fom the Coronavirus

[Christian Ferstl]

A face mask would seem odd in Dandaka forest, wouldn't it?

प्रावृट्काल इवाकाले मेघगूढं सुधाकरम्  ।
सीताया राघवो ऽपश्यच् छादने पिहिताननम् ॥

As if it was the Moon hidden behind the clouds in an unseasonable 
monsoon,
Rama beheld Sitas face concealed by a mask.
