yathā vā – mukunda-caritāmṛta-prasara-varṣiṇas te mayā kathaṁ kathana-cāturī-madhurimā gurur varṇyatām | muhūrtam atad-arthino ’pi viṣayiṇov ’pi yasyānanān niśamya vijayaṁ prabhor dadhati bāṣpa-dhārām amī ||88||

Translation

Another example: How can I describe the sweetness of your skilful words pouring a stream of nectar with descriptions of the pastimes of Mukunda? When the materialists who do not even desire to hear about Mukunda hear the pastimes of Mukunda from your mouth, their eyes quickly become filled with tears.

Purport (Jiva Goswami)

It is suggested in this verse that the tears immediately appear.

Purport (Nectar of Devotion)

In this connection there is a statement by a devotee who addresses the Lord thus: “My dear Mukunda, I cannot properly express the glories of Your pastimes. Even when the nondevotees hear of Your glorious pastimes they become affected and shed tears and start to tremble.”
