2.9.10

snigdhe yat paruṣā asi yat praṇamati stabdhā asi yat rāgiṇi
dveṣa-sthā asi yat unmukhe vimukhatām yātā asi tasmin priye /
yuktam tat viparīta-kāriṇi tava śrīkhaṇḍa-carcā viṣam
śītāṃśuḥ tapanaḥ himam hutavahaḥ krīḍā-mudaḥ yātanāḥ //

Since you are harsh to one who is affectionate, stiff when he bows, full of hate when he loves,
and avert your face when he looks toward you, toward that beloved;
it is fitting, O woman of contrariness, that for you sandalwood paste is poison,
the cool-rayed moon is the scorching sun, snow is fire, and the pleasures of play are torments.
