As near the Vermeil mark is set a pearl.
"Vidyapati Bangiya Padabali Songs of the love of Radha and Krishna"
Vidyapati Thakura
Age cannot Love destroy, But perfidy can rend the shrine 20 In which its Vermeil splendours shine.

Since withering pain no power possessed, 5 Nor age, to blanch thy Vermeil hue, Nor time's dread victor, death, confessed, Though bathed with his poison dew, Still thou retain'st unchanging bloom, Fixed tranquil, even in the tomb.
