2.3.3
tāni prathama-rate nātivyaktāni viśrabdhikāyāṃ vikalpena ca prayuñjīta. tathā-bhūtatvād rāgasya. tataḥ param atitvarayā viśeṣavat samuccayena rāga-saṃdhukṣaṇārtham.
On the occasion of the first congress, kissing and the other things mentioned above should be done moderately, they should not be continued for a long time, and should be done alternately. On subsequent occasions, however, the reverse of all this may take place, and moderation will not be necessary, they may continue for a long time, and for the purpose of kindling love, they may be all done at the same time.
