Bangle dealers take their heap of bangles to the temple fare for selling them. The bangles are named as "glistening tokens of brilliant lives" which imply that they are images of affection in individuals' lives. The bangles are made for happy daughters and spouses. The poet says that a portion of the bangles are made for the unmarried ladies and they are of silver and blue in shading. Alternate bangles made for the lady of the hour shines like the fields of corn amid the morning. Those bangles shine like the bride's marriage fire and rich in her heart's desire.
The bangles are tinkling with "radiant" hues like the lady of the hour's giggling or tears. A few bangles are made for the elderly ladies who have traveled through a portion of their life. These bangles are of purple in shading with gold gleams. These ladies have served their family unit well, supports their children and have worshiped the family divine beings with their spouses beside them.
