yadvā tadvā bhavatu. kiṃ vā na kārayati manmathaḥ . yāvadārabhe karma . bhoḥ!
deśaḥ ko nu jalāvasekaśithilaśchedādaśabdo bhavet
bhittīnāṃ kva nu darśitāntarasukhaḥ sandhiḥ karālo bhavet.
kṣārakṣīṇatayā caleṣṭakakṛśaṃ harmyaṃ kva jīrṇaṃ bhavet
kutra strījanadarśanaṃ ca na bhavet svantaśca yatno bhavet ..8..

Be that as it may. What will Love not make one do? Now let me begin the work. Ah!
Which spot might be loose from being sprinkled with water, so it makes no sound when cut? / Where might the breach in the walls be wide and offer an easy opening? / Where might the mansion be decayed, weak with loose bricks eaten away by salt? / And where will there be no sight of women, so that my effort may have a good end? (8)
