Write what following should have said after listening to the complaint against her:
Daughter
उत्तर

I sincerely apologise if the tinkling of my anklets distracted the potter. It was the potter's fault that he could not concentrate on his work. I did not intend to bother him. However, the Thief was the real culprit.
