5.4.9

nāyikāyā eva tu viśvāsyatām upalabhya dūtītvenopasarpayet prathamasāhasāyāṃ sūkṣmabhāvāyāṃ ceti goṇikāputraḥ//

Gonikaputra is of opinion that when it is the first affair of the woman, or when her love has only been very secretly shown, the man should then secure and send to her a go-between, with whom she may be already acquainted, and in whom she confides.

Richard Francis Burton & Foster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot 1883, The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana
