Arriving running; he extended his hand to pull out the arrow from the leg.Krishna raised his hand in objection…Jaraa said; “Why? O Lord; Why?”“Let it be brother..! Do not attempt to make Mother Gaandhaari’s words go in vain..!” Krishna replied in a very steady tone.“I have committed a great sin. Please forgive me; O Lord..! Thinking that you were a jungle animal….I…. shot at arrow at you. Jaraa started moaning in a piteous voice.“Get up; son..!” Krishna said. “What is your name?”“My…my..name is Jaraa..!”“Jaraa..! OK..!” Your name is also significant; son..! Jaraa means old age; never ever leaves anyone..! You are merely an instrument; son..!”There is no such Indian language in which; poetry; story; novel; drama; reference-book and such other history has not been created—keeping Krishna as the centre-point. The novel “Shyam fir ek baar tum mil jaate” (original Gujarati) is an Upanishadic novel.During the prevailing Aryavart; Krishna was an imposing-personage. When this personage dissolved in the deadly silence that had overcast; this is a written display of the shriek of ‘that-silence’. When Krishna was in front it was a different matter. This novel takes the confused state of mind of the characters—beginning with Vasudev Devaki; Akroor; Uddhav; and Radha— upto an unprecedented height; when Krishna dissolved.

When Tom Swift is given the opportunity to buy a motor-cycle, he immediately begins fixing it up.

"That's the way to do it! Whoop her up, Andy! Shove the spark lever over, and turn on more gasolene! We'll make a record this trip." Two lads in the tonneau of a touring car, that was whirling along a country road, leaned forward to speak to the one at the steering wheel. The latter was a red-haired youth, with somewhat squinty eyes, and not a very pleasant face, but his companions seemed to regard him with much favor. Perhaps it was because they were riding in his automobile. "Whoop her up, Andy!" added the lad on the seat beside the driver. "This is immense!" "I rather thought you'd like it," remarked Andy Foger, as he turned the car to avoid a stone in the road. "I'll make things hum around Shopton!" "You have made them hum already, Andy," commented the lad beside him. "My ears are ringing. Wow! There goes my cap!" As the boy spoke, the breeze, created by the speed at which the car was traveling, lifted off his cap, and sent it whirling to the rear. Andy Foger turned for an instant's glance behind. Then he opened the throttle still wider, and exclaimed: "Let it go, Sam. We can get another. I want to see what time I can make to Mansburg! I want to break a record, if I can." "Look out, or you'll break something else!" cried a lad on the rear seat. "There's a fellow on a bicycle just ahead of us. Take care, Andy!" "Let him look out for himself," retorted Foger, as he bent lower over the steering wheel, for the car was now going at a terrific rate.
