Note 7 — Night
F. W. (Francis William) Bain translation
These names, which recall certain passages in the Rámayan, lose much of their effect in translation. goghna, 'coy-killer,' has a curious history. Because of old a cow could be killed only for a guest of great honour, a word of the most horrible signification actually acquired one honourable meaning, i.e. a guest of a high order.
