It functions more as the equivalent to Western prose with lines and meter and is often used in narratives or epics. I went through your great slokha 'Lalitha Sahasranamam' where the meaningful thousand names of Adi Para Sakthi(primordial cosmic Energy) are narrated and knew her many names. I quote.... 85 Like that of the deer's are thine eyes So is thee known as Mrigakshi Who's temptingly fascinating Thee so is known as Mohini Thee who's the first and the foremost Is so known by the name Mukhya Wife of Mrida thee's Mridani Who bestows on us happiness Thee the radiant sun, so's called Mithra roopini.Contentment... Thee who's replete with is so called Nithya Truptha.A treasure trove Thee in thy bhaktas' hearts.So's thee Bhaktha Nidhi.All creations.. Who rules and leads in the right path So is thee known as Niyantri So's thee the Goddess of the whole So's thee called Nikhileswari With hearty dedicated love Easily thee can be attained So is thee known by the great name Maitryadhi vasana Labhya Witness to the great deluge, so's Maha pralaya sakshini Namaste Mother namaste Divine Mother, unto thy feet This tiny droplet surrenders Rise my size within me, I watch Thanks for sharing.
