The woman knew that no one except the old woman could give information of the marks on her body, for she was a chaste woman, living a retired life. After the lapse of a month, more or less, she issued from her house, followed by two sturdy slave-girls, and made for the dwelling of the youth. The latter was then ill. Entering the house, she seized him by the throat and shouted that now she had caught the thief who had robbed her. Thus saying, she carried him off by force to the judge and accused him of theft. Her story was that the night before, when sleeping with her, he had stolen a valuable bracelet like the one then on her arm. The youth swore it was not true, never had he known such a woman; and it being a total falsehood, he demanded justice for the false accusation. - [Previous: 65.5.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.5.3) - [Next: 65.5.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.5.5) - [Up: 65.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.5) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.5.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.5.4) · Pramāṇa
