When the love of a woman has found its object at last, these changes in body appear as a result of 'the developed state of that love. These graceful changes take place, generally when the woman has already experienced the pleasures of physical love, but sometimes they appear even before that.
747 and others, on the other hand, appear only after the woman has tasted the pleasures of physical love.
tel, the imitation of the speech, dress and movements of the lover by his beloved, is the result of her great love and admiration for her lover; it never means mimicing with a view to ridicule him.
The Sanskrit rendering of the verse 723 is as follows:
यद्यत्त्वं करोषि यद्यच्चजल्पसि यथा त्वे नियमसि । तत्तदनुशिक्षस्था दिवसो दिवसो न संपतति ।।
In imitating your speech and movements the days are too short for her.
स्थानादीनां वैशिष्टयं विलासः
The peculiarly charming pose of the limbs is called famig.
The word af in kinat includes the happy pose in walking and sitting as also of the hands and eyes,
Verse 724: Ana describes the graceful movements of the young women whom he saw in the temple of the god of love.
There were manifested to my sight the victorious workings of love ( in that fair-eyed one ) that were extremely charming owing to the great changes in the body, the variety in which transcended the power of description in words, and that were replete with various graces.
