Manu 5.157

कामं तु क्सपयेद् देहं पुष्पमूलफलैः शुभैः । न तु नाम-अपि गृह्णीयात् पत्यौ प्रेते परस्य तु ॥

kāmaṃ tu ksapayed dehaṃ puṣpa.mūla.phalaiḥ śubhaiḥ | na tu nāma-api gṛhṇīyāt patyau prete parasya tu ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

At her pleasure let her emaciate her body by (living on) pure flowers, roots, and fruit; but she must never even mention the name of another man after her husband has died.

Translated by Georg BühlerFrom an unproofread scan of the printed edition; spelling and line breaks may carry OCR errors.
