The Preludes
When Kama is practiced by men of the four castes
according to the rules of the Holy Writ
(i.e., by lawful marriage) with virgins
of their own caste, it then becomes a means
of acquiring lawful progeny and good fame,
and it is not also opposed to the customs
of the world. On the contrary the practice
of Kama with women of the higher castes,
and with those previously enjoyed by others,
even though they be of the same caste,
is prohibited. But the practice of Kama
with women of the lower castes, with women
excommunicated from their own caste,
with public women, and with women twice married,
is neither enjoined nor prohibited.
The object of practicing Kama with such women
is pleasure only.
