# Cc. Madhya 25.17 > গ্রন্থ বাড়ে, পুনরুক্তি হয় ত’ কথন । > তাহাঁ যে না লিখিলুঁ, তাহা করিয়ে লিখন ॥১৭॥ ## Text > grantha bāḍe, punarukti haya ta' kathana > tāhāṅ ye nā likhiluṅ, tāhā kariye likhana ## Synonyms *grantha*—the size of the book; *bāḍe*—increases; *punaḥ-ukti*—repetition; *haya*—would be; *ta' kathana*—of subject matters once described; *tāhāṅ*—there (in the Seventh Chapter); *ye*—whatever; *nā likhiluṅ*—I have not described; *tāhā*—that; *kariye likhana*—I am writing. ## Translation **Since I have already described this incident very elaborately in the Seventh Chapter of Ādi-līlā, I do not wish to increase the size of this book by giving another description. However, I shall try to include in this chapter whatever was not described there.**
