50. SECTION ON THE UNCHASTE WOMEN
339
(492) The mother-in-law is deaf and blind; the village is crowded (agog) with several weddings; and my husband has gone abroad to a distant land. (Oh traveller), who will give (offer) you residence (in our house) ?
493) This is a crowded place and not an unfrequented (solitary) one. My mother-in-law is short-tempered (irascible). She will not allow you residence (in the house). Therefore, oh traveller, you should go away. Do not ask for residence here in my house. (Hidden sense: Oh traveller, this is not a crowded place, but an unfrequented (solitary) one. My mother-in-law is not irascible (short-tempered). She will allow you residence in the house. Therefore, ob traveller, do not go away. Do ask for residence here in my house).
494) Oh traveller, how can you get a (comfortable) bed (EXACT) in this rustic dwelling (poor people's house) of ours? If, however, seeing the rising clouds (brewing storm) (in the sky) (3299472617), you want to stay (stop) here, then only you may stay. (Hidden sense: Oh traveller, how can you get comfortable dalliance (FR) in this rustic dwelling of ours? If, however, seeing my conspicuous (challenging) breasts, you want to stay (halt) here, then only you may stay.]
495) Oh traveller, do you put up in the court-yard itself (of our house). Let your keen desire of sojourning here be fulfilled. In this our village, however, even the cold season is like summer (i.e. even if you stay outside, in the open, you will not suffer from the cold, because the climate of our village is so warm that e winter here is like summer). (Hidden meaning: If you stay in the court-yard at night, I shall visit you secretly and enfold you in my embrace, so that even the present cold season will be delightfully warm for you).
496) Here sleeps my mother-in-law; here do l; and here all the servants of the household. Oh night-blind traveller, (mark chese positions well just now, while it is day-time and) do not tumble into my bed (at night).
