Verse 86 - Heer and Ranjha confer

In dismay Heer tells Ranjha that he should have bene more careful, who responds that he did not know Kaido was spying on them; he had just seen a disabled beggar begging for food, not realizing that he had ill intentions. Interestingly, rather than chasing Kaido himself, Ranjha asks Heer to do so, suggesting that she first reason with him and then use force if necessary to keep him quiet. Once again the poet is emphasizing his heroine’s proud and forceful mein.
