As you drink Saraswati's wise sayings - waves of nectar that steal away skill - with your cupped ears continuously, your cluster of earrings moved by wonder and praise seems to respond with their melodious jingling, as if joining the conversation through musical notes, showing how divine ornaments participate in the appreciation of wisdom.
