One gopi, joining Lord Mukunda in His singing, sang pure melodious tones that rose harmoniously above His. Krsna was pleased and showed great appreciation for her performance, saying "Excellent! Excellent!" Then another gopi repeated the same melody, but in a special metrical pattern, and Krsna praised her also.
