2.105
They said: The beautiful Indian women are more lovely than the Turks and Qipchaqs, besides being distinguished by great refinement and captivating accomplishment. Most of them are golden in complexion, and among them are fair ones of a radiant whiteness mixed with red. Despite the abundance of Turks, Qipchaqs, Rūm and all other races among them, no one is preferred to the beautiful Indian women, because of their perfect beauty and sweetness, and other things too subtle for words.
