extremely odious (to the day-lotuses). To whom does one, that is tarnished (with a black spot), become dear (or commend himself) ?
496*13) The mother-in-law knows only too well the daughter-in-law; the daughte-in-law (also) knows the doings of the mother-in-law. Let them have a happy time. Let not one bilvafruit be smashed by another.
496*14) Among all unchaste women, mine is the first mark: (place) (I stand next to none). My hand is raised up (to proclaim my pre-eminence in this respect). I seek the shelter of your feet. The divine river (Ganges) (herself) plays the part of love's.. messenger.
51. The Section on the Astrologer
507*1) Oh friend, how can I fail to touch [kiss : ( fisqu = FaguaTA )] with my head (the feet of) that astrologer (practiser of coitus), by whom was realised my suffering (pang) due to the nonoccurrence of the movement of Venus (also, the pang due to the non-occurrence of the discharge of the semen virile in my vagina, when my husband practised coitus on me)?

532*2) Oh religious mendicant, religious merit is reported to be derived from charity, penance and pilgrimage to sacred places. But is there ever seen religious merit arising from the plucking of the foliage of young (tender) trees ?
