When her lover casually asked her attendants, "Why does the innocent-eyed woman / sleep again with the hem of her garment tied so tightly by her girdle?" / she, feigning anger, saying, "Mother, he even prevents me from sleeping here!" / turning over on the pretext of sleeping, gave him room on the bed. ||18
