Promiscuity, indifference, constant companionship, dexterity in conversation, praise of the beloved's relations, adventures entailing risk and danger to life and gifts revive fading love. The love of a young girl is won through simplicity; the love of a greedy woman through money; the love of a wise woman through wisdom and the love of an angry woman through appeasement. - [Previous: c10.134](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c10.134) - [Next: c10.136](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c10.136) - [Up: c10](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c10) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c10.135](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c10.135) · Pramāṇa
