1.5.22
etair eva kāraṇair mahā-mātra-saṃbaddhā rāja-saṃbaddhā vā tatraika-deśa-cāriṇī kā cid anyā vā kārya-saṃpādinī vidhavā pañcamīti cārāyaṇaḥ.
Charayana thinks that under these circumstances there is also a fifth kind of of Nayika, viz., a woman who is kept by a minister, or who repairs to him occasionally; or a widow who accomplishes the purpose of a man with the person to whom she resorts.
