इत्युन्मत्तवचोगोप्य: कृष्णान्वेषणकातरा: ।
लीला भगवतस्तास्ता ह्यनुचक्रुस्तदात्मिका: ॥
ity unmatta-vaco gopyaḥ kṛṣṇānveṣaṇa-kātarāḥ |
līlā bhagavatas tās tā hy anucakrus tad-ātmikāḥ ||
(Śrīmad Bhāgavatam: 10.30.14)
“Having spoken such maddened words, the gopīs, distraught as they searched for Kṛṣṇa, acted out the various līlās of Bhagavān, their minds absorbed in him.”
