10. Radha's Love by Epified
Gopis came to Krishna playing the flute
Krishna loved Radha
The Gopis tested Radha of her love by having her drink scalding milk, which burned Krishna's tongue, not hers
No one would allow Krishna to drink off them when he was ill even though that would be the only way to cure him. However, Radha did because she did not fear going to Hell for it.
