The courtesan explained to the lover that separation from him was due to the different temperaments of the courtesan and her mother. She informed him that she was forced to consort with another lover against her will. It was also impressed upon him that she did not like the new lover. She considered him a worthless fellow. She refurbished his memory and reminded him of the pleasures they had shared. - [Previous: c8.204](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8.204) - [Next: c8.206](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8.206) - [Up: c8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8.205](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8.205) · Pramāṇa
