The descent of the sun: A cycle of birth, An Evil Eye., sentence 11

Then said Kamalamitra: Since it is so, and I must absolutely choose, then give me a wife, whose eyes, like these hills and this sky, shall be full of the dusky lustre[5] of thy throat and thy moon, as if, insatiate of gazing at thee, they had become, not transitory mirrors, but pictures permanently stained with thy glory.

Who acts: Kamalamitra, boon, I, insatiate, wife, pictures · What happens: say, be, choose, give, gaze, become · To what, where: wife, me, transitory mirrors · Speech: someone speaks here
