1.224

paṭālagne patyau namayati mukhaṃ jātavinayā
haṭhāśleṣaṃ vāñchatyapaharati gātrāṇi nibhṛtam |
na śaknotyākhyātuṃ smitamukhasakhīdattanayanā
hriyā tāmyatyantaḥ prathamaparihāse navavadhūḥ ||37||(41)

When her husband catches at her garment, filled with modesty she bows her face;
when he desires a forceful embrace, she quietly withdraws her limbs;
she cannot speak, casting glances at her smiling female confidantes;
with bashfulness the young bride suffers inwardly at the first jest. ||37||(41)
