217. O Yashodā, when your son stole the milk and curd that was
kept for churning in the cowherd village and ate them,
the cowherds saw him, caught him and tied him up.
Now he can’t steal the butter made by the cowherd women
with round bamboo-like arms because they tied him up and
spanked him so he cried. This isn’t fair.
