PURPORT

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī comments as follows: "The gopīs thought, 'The Kṛṣṇa moon, after piercing our hearts with the darts of His nectarean laughter, went away. So how will the city women not die when He does the same to them?' Overwhelmed with these thoughts, the young cowherd girls began to cry, even in the presence of Śrī Baladeva."
