subha

/ ˈsuːbaː /

noun

Origin of subha¹

from Arabic

Pratap took with him a small allowance of betel, and Subha prepared it for him.

Subha went to the cow-shed to bid farewell to her childhood's comrades.

Pratap respected Subha for her taciturnity, and, as every one called her Subha, he showed his affection by calling her Su.

Subha used to sit beneath a tamarind, and Pratap, a little distance off, would cast his line.

Subha left her room, and flung herself down on her grassy couch beside her dear river.
