Hearing this benediction from Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, all the girls were inwardly very happy, but externally, as is natural for girls, they rebuked the Lord under the pretense of anger.

PURPORT

This double-dealing is natural for girls.

When they are satisfied within, they externally show dissatisfaction.

Such feminine dealings are very palatable to boys who try to make friendships with them.
