Summary

This quote suggests that pleasure, when enjoyed in moderation, has positive effects on women akin to the sun's impact on flowers. It beautifies, refreshes, and improves their overall well-being.

The quote emphasizes the importance of finding a balance and not allowing excessive pleasure to overshadow the positive benefits it can bring to women's lives.
