yat tatra sāmyād vā dravya-sāmye mitra-vākyād ati:pātitvād āyatito gamya-guṇataḥ prītitaś ca viśeṣaḥ.
When the same labor is required to gain any two lovers, or when the same kind of thing is to be got from each of them, the choice should be made by the advice of a friend, or it may be made from their personal qualities, or from the signs of good or bad fortune that may be connected with them.
