sanskrit

"Once mutual acquaintance has been established, noting her signs and expressions, he approaches the girl with a view to uniting with her. Such sexual relations are performed secretly if the girl is a virgin. Thus she is opened by him when he unites with her." He takes her as indicated in the chapter "Union with the Girl," in which the necessary approaches are indicated for seducing the girl. Girls are dissimulating, so discretion is necessary in order to possess them, while those who amuse themselves openly can be pursued without hesitation.
