SOCIAL CONDITIONS 361 wife of a Vipra could not meet her paramour at the appointed
place, but unfortunately the brother of that Vipra was killed, who
happened to go to that place (82-47). 艢r墨d膩m膩, the queen of
Kulankara become successful in establishing illicit connection with
a Purohita and for that she become merciless to the extent of causing
the murder of her husband (82.37). Queen Kiranamandala,
though warned by her husband, did not prevent herself
from meeting her paramour again. And for that she was exiled by
her husband (101.60). The wife of an envoy caused the death of
her husband at the hands of a Vipra who was her paramour. Further
she did not hesitate in hatching a plot to get her sons murdered,
but the plot was unearthed and the Vipra was killed by her sons
(39.42). The wife of a G峁沨apati got her husband tied to a tree in
the forest at the hands of her Vipra paramour and freely enjoyed with
the latter (48.65). In addition
to these instances of women
who belonged to different strata of the society, there is an allego-
rical reference to a corrupt woman (padut峁環amahil膩 15.66) who
would freely move from house to house. There is a further
mention of a harlot (svairi峁嚹� 5.105) who became the cause of enmity
between two friends.
These evidences support the disparaging remarks made about
the character of woman by the author through the mouths of R膩vana
and R膩ma.2 But the statements are

calamity by his own misconduct. His brother and sons get captured
by the enemy, his mission fails in sending back R膩ma without S墨t膩 and
S墨t膩 also does not like to become his wife. Thus the only course left
open to him was that of the war. At such a time R膩va峁嘺 gets desperate
and blames the woman-kind. It was on account of his being motivated
by the sexual urge that R膩va峁嘺 did the ignoble deed of kidnapping
S墨t膩 and for that R膩vana is further found to be blaming himself and
confessing his guilt鲁 (69.32-33). Thus R膩va峁嘺 being compelled by the
situation made such derogatory remarks about women otherwise S墨t膩
was so chaste that she upheld the glorious position of women. R膩ma
accepts S墨t膩 after killing R膩va峁嘺. He is not suspicious of her virtue.
