If she behaved wickedly she had to be punished. Indifference was resorted to when other means had failed. A woman's love was to be judged from her facial expressions and from the movements of her limbs. - [Previous: c8.269](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8.269) - [Next: c8.271](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8.271) - [Up: c8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8.270](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8.270) · Pramāṇa
