परिव्राजिका लब्ध विश्वासा अन्तःपुरे कृत सत्कारा महा मात्रम् एकैकम् उपजपेत् "राज महिषी त्वां कामयते कृत समागम उपाया, महान् अर्थश् च ते भविष्यति" इति ॥

A woman-spy under the guise of an ascetic and highly esteemed in the harem of the king may allure each prime minister (mahámátra) one after another, saying "the queen is enamoured of thee and has made arrangements for thy entrance into her chamber; besides this, there is also the certainty of large acquisitions of wealth."
