sanskrit

If she likes to be astonished, he surprises her with conjuring tricks. If she is interested in the arts, he shows his skill, and if she loves music, he sings songs that enchant her ear. On the eighth day of the moon of the month of Ashvin (May), and other festivals of the moon, on days of pilgrimage, eclipses, on returning from a journey, when she is in grief, or the day on which her ears are pierced, he offers her clothes and jewels, being careful not to put her in the wrong.
