भर्तरि प्रमाद्यन्तीमुपेक्षेत । यत्र मन्येतार्थमियं स्वयमपि प्रतिपत्स्यत इति तत्रैनामादरत एवानुशिष्यात् ॥ ५ ॥

sanskrit

If the younger one neglects her duties toward her husband, she takes responsibility for it and covers up for her. The younger will then respect her and treat her favorably.

english translation

पतिविषयक प्रमाद पर उपेक्षा- यदि कनिष्ठा पतिविषयक कोई प्रमाद करे तो उसकी उपेक्षा कर दे। यदि यह समझे कि पति को प्राप्त करने के लिये यह स्वयं ही संभल जायेगी तो उसे आदरपूर्वक स्वयं समझा दे ॥ ५ ॥
