5.3.18

nidrāndhā vā parispṛśyorubhyāṃ bāhubhyām api tiṣṭhati. alikaikadeśam ūrvor upari pātayati. ūru-mūla-saṃvāhane niyuktā na pratilomayati. tatraiva hastam ekam a:vicalaṃ nyasyati. aṅga-saṃdaṃśena ca pīḍitaṃ cirād apanayati.

She sometimes bends down her face upon his thighs, and when asked to shampoo them does not manifest any unwillingness to do so.
Richard Francis Burton & Foster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot 1883, The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana

She places one of her hands quite motionless on his body, and even though the man should press it between two members of his body, she does not remove it for a long time.
Richard Francis Burton & Foster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot 1883, The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana

She remains with both hands placed on his body motionless as if she had been surprised by something, or was overcome by fatigue.
Richard Francis Burton & Foster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot 1883, The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana
