iv Preface


Finally, it is submitted, again, that Vidyapati has sung of love. as every man and every woman understand it โ€” love as understood by physiologists and psychologists โ€” love as the subject-matter of Kamch shastra or erotics โ€” love as the theme of Wagner's ;music-drama, Tristan und Isolde.
