Katamāni pañca? What five?
Rūpabalaṁ, bhogabalaṁ, ñātibalaṁ, puttabalaṁ, sīlabalaṁ—Attractiveness, wealth, relatives, children, and ethical behavior.
imāni kho, bhikkhave, pañca mātugāmassa balāni. These are the five powers of a lady.
Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi balehi samannāgato mātugāmo sāmikaṁ abhibhuyya vattatī”ti. A lady with these five powers lives having mastered her husband.” “Lives having mastered” is abhibhuyya vattati (cf. AN 7.63:7.3); Rig Veda 10.159.5 has abhibhūvarī in the same sense.
