She was clever enough not to praise the virtues of other men She never censured her lover's faults and accepted whatever he gave her with a show of cheerfulness. She showed her distress when her lover suffered a calamity by giving up wearing ornaments and refusing to eat. Even in adversity she showed her willingness to accompany him. If she was retained by the king, she showed her willingness to be redeemed.
