Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
चलस्वभावा दुःसेव्या दुर्ग्राह्या भावतस्तथा । प्राज्ञस्य पुरुषस्येह यथा वाचस्तथा स्त्रियः ॥
English Scholarly Translation
They are highly fickle, for they always hanker after new companions. On account of their nature being unintelligible, they are incapable of being kept in obedience by loving treatment. Their nature is such that they are incapable of being controlled when bent upon transgression. Indeed, women are like the words uttered by the wise.
