Chapter 10 · A Woman's Body Marks
दशमोऽध्यायः
निर्मांसौ पुरुषाकारौ रोमशौ कुटिलाकृती ।सीमन्तिनीनामशुभौ दौर्भाग्यपरिवर्द्धकौ ॥ ७८ ॥
Cheeks without flesh, cheeks shaped like a man's, hairy cheeks and crooked cheeks are not counted as good for women. The old texts link them with more hardship in her fortune.
Simple meaning: Fleshless, man-like, hairy or crooked cheeks are linked with more hardship in a woman's fortune.
वर्तुलो रेखयाक्रांतो बन्धूकसदृशोऽधरः ।
A round, smooth, red lower lip with a line is linked with being always dear to the king.
प्रलम्बः पुरुषाकारः स्फुटितोमांसवर्जितः ।
A hanging, split or fleshless lip is linked with hardship. A black lip is linked with a risk of widowhood.
उपर्यधः समा दन्ताः स्तोकरूपाः पयोरुचः ।
Even, small, bright teeth are good. Thirty-two teeth are linked with lasting good fortune.
