TRANSLATION

The great sage Narada continued: My dear King, after bewildering her
husband in different ways and bringing him under her control, the wife of
King Puranjana gave him all satisfaction and enjoyed sex life with him.

PURPORT

After hunting in the forest, King Purafjana returned home, and after
refreshing himself by taking a bath and eating nice food, he searched for
his wife. When he saw her lying down on the ground without a bed, as if
neglected, and devoid of any proper dress, he became very much aggrieved.
