Summary
It was a fresh day. The Sun was rising in the eastern horizon. A pair of saras cranes was moving about. There came a hunter and shot one of the cranes. The female crane was shocked and started crying. It was flying in circles over the dead male partner. The hunter lifted the delicate, wounded crane by its neck and feet and pushed the bird inside the coarse washing bag. It was lying like a dirty cloth.
The female crane kept crying and flying. Its flying was graceful but the death of her partner was disgraceful. The killer took away the dead crane and the female crane came down to the spot where the male crane was lying. Its grief intensified and it cried on and off like the sound of Morse code. The cry of the bird spread all around. She then started gathering the blood stained feathers lying about there.
She was desperate to get back her mate. The grief was so intense that she lost her senses. She sat on the blood stained feathers thinking that they would hatch and little chicks would be born. This shows how desperate she was to get her mate back to life. As it did not happen, her grief intensified manyfolds and came like a big wave. She could not bear the grief and died instantly. This bird is another example of widowed cranes dying of intense grief that Hume mentions in his book.
This episode is exemplary and it is beyond the legends of human love, Romeo and Juliet or Laila and Majnu.
