(Nevertheless) she suddenly became with child by him (her husband): how should it be (otherwise when) both the wife and the husband are young?.3725
حامله شد ناگهان دختر ازو ** چون بود هر دو جوان خاتون و شو
She kept it (the child) hidden from her father, (till) the child was five or six months old.
از پدر او را خفی می‌داشتش ** پنج ماهه گشت کودک یا که شش
(Then) the discovery was made. “What is this?” asked her father; “did not I tell thee to adopt (the practice of) withdrawal from him?
گشت پیدا گفت بابا چیست این ** من نگفتم که ازو دوری گزین
These injunctions of mine were (mere) wind, forsooth! My counsel and exhortations have been of no use to thee.”
این وصیتهای من خود باد بود ** که نکردت پند و وعظم هیچ سود
“Father,” said she, “how should I guard myself? Man and wife, beyond doubt, are (as) fire and cotton.
گفت بابا چون کنم پرهیز من ** آتش و پنبه‌ست بی‌شک مرد و زن
What means has the cotton of guarding itself from the fire, or when is there (any) carefulness and caution in the fire?”3730
پنبه را پرهیز از آتش کجاست ** یا در آتش کی حفاظست و تقاست

گفت من گفتم که سوی او مرو ** تو پذیرای منی او مشو
Tempore summae voluptatis et emissionis et deliciarum te corpus ab eo retrahere oportet.’” [At the moment of ecstasy, (seminal) emission, and pleasure you must draw yourself away from him.’”]
در زمان حال و انزال و خوشی ** خویشتن باید که از وی در کشی
She said, “Quando sit ejus emissio quomodo intelligam? hoc enim occultum et valde difficile est.” [She said, “How may I know when his emission is? It is hidden and is very remote (difficult to predict).”]
گفت کی دانم که انزالش کیست ** این نهانست و بغایت دوردست
He replied, “Cum res eo redierit ut oculi ejus volvantur, intellige id esse tempus emissionis.” [He replied, “When his eyes start to roll (and show whiteness), know that it is the moment of his emission.”]
گفت چشمش چون کلاپیسه شود ** فهم کن که آن وقت انزالش بود
