The Section on the Appeasement (Pacification) of the Young Damsel 551*1 ) People who have the power to conceal (suppress) all the voluntary and involuntary movements of the various parts of the body (which act as a clue to the working of the mind) cannot be weighed (i.e. the secret workings of their minds cannot be detected) by any body. But the moment they see another per. son, they weigh him with the balance of their heart. 58. The Section on the Instruction given by a Procuress (to a Novice Girl) 559*1) Liquefaction, horripilation, truthfulness in speech (or in the mouth), and a flashing, engaging glance-oh fair one, learn this skill again and again, without intermission (3449). 559*?) The senior lady (procuress) tutors, with smiling words, young girls, such (actions) as touching the hand of the patron), squeezing it, kissing it, pressnig it, and stroking (patring) it-actions which are the repertories of sweetness and charm (Analogin?). 59. The Stction on the Harlot 578*1 ) May the harlot whose birth and origin (pedigree) are unknown, who is accessible to all and sundry (or is visited by all and sundry), who is squeezed (embraced) by many a gallant, whose business it is to quell (gratify) the passion of patrons visiting her) and who is like God Siva (whose birth and origin is not known by any body), who is all-pervading, whose body is squeezed (clasped, embraced) by snakes and who was r sponsible for destroying (burning down) Cupid, conduce to your happiness! 578*2) The heart of a harlot which is attacked by love (passion to the bodies of all her patrons and which is not at all full of genuine love at its core, shows similarity with a Karavira flower which too has red colour in all its parts (petals) and which is not at all red in its innermost part.
