In spite of the fact the arrow is straight <br />It is dangerous and kills the enemy in fight! <br /> <br />But, the fact that the Lute or Veenai is curved, <br />It produces the nice music the artist rendered! <br /> <br />Likewise, one has to judge the humane <br />Nature, virtues and character of deserving men, <br /> <br />By the good deeds he does to others, <br />But not by their fair appearance thither!<br /><br />Dr.V.K.
