34. SECTION ON BEAUTY (LOVELINESS)

of the three folds (of abdominal skin), here in the region of her pudendum, here in her lotus-like face and here in her firm and extensive bosom.
318*2) Every time a different (new) girdle, every time a different (new) bodice-in the case of a newly married damsel-is not adequate for being worn, while youthful age is mounting towards its climax.
318*3) The loveliness of the damsel having the sheen of gold, being heated by the fire of Cupid and boiling (seething) inside, has erupted as it were under the guise of her bulky breasts.
318*4) That the lady, whose body is (very) slender in the middle part, does not suddenly break (into two) due to the weight of her bulky breasts-the reason for that is this, that the creator has provided a prop in the form of the line of down (on her abdominal skin), for fear that otherwise she would break (crumble down) under the weight of her breasts.
318*5) Oh moon, why do you feel sorry on being defeated by the loveliness of the cheeks of the young damsel? Well, let not pride be entertained by you (on account of your supposedly incomparable beauty). Do not forget that the earth abounds in numerous gems (jewels, i. e. excellent things).
318*6) The young girl, a store-house of loveliness, who is like a young (fresh and tender) mātuliṁga plant (creeper), makes the heart (mind) (of the spectator) to be full of saliva (i. e. tontalizes the mind), just as a tamarind-pod that is fully ripe causes the mouth of the spectator to water.
35. The Section on Coitus
328*1) The happiness, which two mutually trustful (confiding) persons, who have surrendered (drowned, plunged) their hearts to (into) the stream of mutual love and who are feigning anger towards each other, enjoy, as a result of the amorous dalliance (which follows in the wake of the feigned anger), is really nectar itself.
