विधवा चैव या नारी तस्या यात्राविधिं ब्रुवे । कुंकुमं चन्दनं चैव तांबूलं च स्रजस्तथा
vidhavā caiva yā nārī tasyā yātrāvidhiṃ bruve | kuṃkumaṃ candanaṃ caiva tāṃbūlaṃ ca srajastathā
Đối với người phụ nữ góa, ta sẽ nói rõ phép tắc hành hương: nên tránh bôi kumkuma (nhụy tây), tránh bột đàn hương, trầu cau, và cả vòng hoa nữa.
