3. Thiru andappahuthi The devotee ploughmen built a lofty dam at the junction of huge hills and imprisoned therein the beauteous waters of grace: They formed an outlet into a tank where grows honey-dripping fragrant lotus watching with delight the water rising higher in the tank with bunds where bumble beetles were buzzing over a huge smoke of agil (Dysoxylum binectariferum) wood: they sowed seeds of love in the fields of worship; hallowed by You Oh Cloud rare to be gained in this universe Who bestowed on those devotee ploughmen asurfeit of harvest. (89-95). Hallowed be the God with a waist-band of black hooded snake! Hallowed be the Beginning of all things Who bestows grace on the devout ascetics! Hallowed be the Knight who dispelled my fears! Hallowed be the One Who for certain draws us to Him and makes us His! Hallowed be He Who wipes away the enveloping great misery! Hallowed be He who gives rare Ambrosia to those that gained access to Him! Hallowed be He Who curvets about while dancing in the dense darkness! (96-102): Hallowed be the Lover of Her with arms resembling swelling bamboo! Hallowed be our King Who has no attachment to those who have no attachment to Him! Hallowed be the Treasure to devotees in needy times! (103-105): Obeisance to our own One who charmed the poisonous snake! Obeisance to the great One who made me God-mad! Obeisance to Him capable of embellishing with sacred ash on Him! He is the One who moves the moving creatures and makes the dormant ones dormant (106-109): 139
