Note! The following is not a translation of the above verse, but merely an arbitrary extract of the English text.

The whole essence of the universe is the understanding of the entire moon, the instinct of goodness, the subjugation of deer and other animals, and the wonder of the art of the taste of passion. He who thus carefully calculates the character of a lustful woman in accordance with the modes of nature for the rest of her life becomes the master of her life and brings her happiness.
