PURPORT

During the rasa dance, one form of Krsna was between every two gopis.

But by the side of Srimati Radharani there was only one Krsna.

Although this was the case, Srimati Radharani still manifested disagreement with Krsna.

This verse is from the Ujjvala-nilamani (Srngara-bheda-kathana 102), written by Srila Rupa Gosvami.
