4.35
Breezes from palm-leaf fans, necklaces, garlands with white and blue lotuses,
Slender women wearing lotus-stalk bracelets, lovely women smeared with sandalwood;
Since the instrument must be applied by one who has tactile sensitivity amidst the vagina, liver, spleen, intestine, uterus, and other organs without injuring them, and pulling up, turning, tearing, cutting, splitting, pressing, and straightening must be performed with a single hand;
Like hiccough and dyspnea, for they indeed make their abode at the time of death;
With parched grain, musta, śaṭhī, rāsnā, dhātrī fruit, and bibhītaka,
An electuary with sugar, honey, and ghee relieves heart disease and cough;
Likewise with ākhukarṇikā combined with taṇḍulīyaka;
Free from distress, free from anxiety, live happily for a hundred years;
