377.13
in God the Exalted from the bad women, and beware of their good ones, because
when their lustful glance inclines toward something, they abandon religion and the world;
they seize their purpose and desired object, and pay no heed to the interests of religion and the state;
they look to immediate pleasure and do not reflect on deferred punishment; crookedness is kneaded into their nature,
and falsehood and hypocrisy, and deceit and discord, are mixed with their clay;
and if the king permits, I shall recount a story from the compilation of their deceit and wiles, and the composition
of their stratagems and treachery. The shah commanded: Speak!
