________________ ft: || श्री यादवाभ्युदय महाकाव्यम् ॥ प्रथमः सर्गः वन्दे वृन्दावनचरं वल्लवीजनवल्लभम् । जयन्तीसंभव धाम वैजयन्तीविभूषणम् ॥ १ ॥ I salute the luminary (1), who, born in 'Jayanthi' was wandering in Brindavana, being the beloved of the cowherdesses and adorned with the divine garland named "Vaijayanthi."' Note: (i) is the object-word in this sloka. It means the 'luminary'. That luminary is Sri Krishna here. This word is qualified by four adjecti- ves which are very appropriate. The 'luminary'- may be taken for the foot of Sri Krishna also, in which case the four adjectives qualify it even more appropriately. As per the first adjective, it is the foot of Sri Krishna which is more directly in- volved in wandering in Brindavana. (ii) means luminary, i. e. Shedding lustre. The foot also is such, like Sri Krishna. Hence, the foot of Sri Krishna is referred to as ......"04 "சுடரடி Qømy QgQT LOOTGOT" by Sri Nammalvar also, at the beginning of his Divyaprabandham. The second adjective also fits in more appropriately in this case, as the cowherdesses are specially fond of that tender foot as to place it very carefully on their breasts and feel very happy thereby.
