परिष्वजस्व मां कांतां पाययस्व तवाधरम् । नाहं गंतुं समर्थास्मि स्मरबाणप्रपीडिता
pariṣvajasva māṃ kāṃtāṃ pāyayasva tavādharam | nāhaṃ gaṃtuṃ samarthāsmi smarabāṇaprapīḍitā

Kāma can overpower the mind through sensory invitation; dharma praises restraint and clarity.
None is specified in this verse; it is narrative dialogue.
No ritual act is prescribed; the focus is on the psychology of desire.
