Read it in its chapter“Rahim, do not snap the thread of love with a jerk. Once broken it will not join again, and if it does, a knot remains.” रहिमन धागा प्रेम का, मत तोड़ो चटकाय । टूटे से फिर ना मिले, मिले गाँठ परि जाय ॥ rahiman dhāgā prem kā, mat toṛo chaṭkāy; ṭūṭe se phir nā mile, mile gā̃ṭh pari jāy.
