एवं चैवमकामां त्वां न च स्प्रक्ष्यामि मैथिलि। कामं कामः शरीरे मे यथाकामं प्रवर्तताम्॥
evaṃ caivamakāmāṃ tvāṃ na ca sprakṣyāmi maithili| kāmaṃ kāmaḥ śarīre me yathākāmaṃ pravartatām||
English Meaning
In spite of this, O Maithili, I do not touch you for you are not under the influence of amour—but for me, I am completely under its sway.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
