Among modern poets, Sacheverell Sitwell devotes a whole poem in Canons of Giant Art to describing Krishna's effect. Louis MacNeice in Ten Burnt Offerings describes a much-loved cat, Fluid as Krishna chasing the milkmaids. And the same Krishna, flute player and lover of milkmaids, is familiar to British audiences from the dancing of Ram Gopal.
