Manu 9.14

न-एता रूपं परीक्षन्ते) न-आसां वयसि संस्थितिः । सुरूपं वा विरूपं वा पुमान् इत्य् एव भुञ्जते) ॥

na-etā rūpaṃ parīkṣante) na-āsāṃ vayasi saṃsthitiḥ | surūpaṃ vā virūpaṃ vā pumān ity eva bhuñjate) ||

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

Women do not care for beauty, nor is their attention fixed on age; (thinking), '(It is enough that) he is a man/ they give themselves to the handsome and to the ugly.

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