पुरुषश्चटुलानि कामिनीनां कुरुते यानि रहो न तानि पश्चात् । सुकृतज्ञतयाअङ्गना गतासून् अवगूह्य प्रविशन्ति सप्तजिह्वम् ॥ ७४-१६ ॥

A man when alone with his wife speaks to her sweet language and no more thinks of her after her death; while a woman often enters the funeral pile along with her diseased husband out of her love for him.
