If such takes place, a great quarrel arises, and the woman cries, becomes angry, tosses her hair about, strikes her lover, falls from her bed or seat, and, casting aside her garlands and ornaments, throws herself down on the ground. > — Richard Francis Burton & Foster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot 1883, The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana - [Previous: 2.10.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.kama.vatsyayana.2.10.26) - [Next: 2.10.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.kama.vatsyayana.2.10.28) - [Up: 2.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.kama.vatsyayana.2.10) ## Translations (1) - [The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana](https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.kama.vatsyayana~en-burton.2.10.p22) — Richard Francis Burton & Foster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot 1883, English ## Commentaries (1) - [Jayamaṅgalā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.kama.vatsyayana!jayamangala.19.40) — Yaśodhara Indrapada, Sanskrit ## Other recensions (1) - [Text edited by Jean Fezas (with notes)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.kama.vatsyayana*fezas.2.10.27) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.kama.vatsyayana.2.10.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.kama.vatsyayana.2.10.27) · Pramāṇa
