 ये भवन्ति महीपस्य सम्मानितविमानिताः ।

यतन्ते तस्य नाशाय कुलीना अपि सर्वदा ॥ 46

 

Ye bhavanti mahīpasya sammanitavimanitah l
Yatante tasya nashaya kulina api sarvada 
ll

 

Servants who have been praised and later insulted by the king, will always

try to bring about his destruction, even if they are from good families.

 


दुर्जनैरुच्यमानानि संमतानि प्रियाण्यपि ।
अकालकुसुमानीव भयं संजनयन्ति हि ॥ 
47

 

Durjanair uchyamanani sammatani priynyapi l
Akalakusumaniva bhayam samjanayanti hi ll

 

Even pleasant words spoken with a smile by the wicked cause fear

like flowers appearing out-of-season.

 

पूर्णे तटाके तृषितः सदैव भूतेपि गेहे क्षुधितः स मूढः ।
कल्पद्रुमे सत्यपि वै दरिद्रः गुर्वादियोगेऽपि हि यः प्रमादी ॥
4

 

Purne tatake trushitah sadaiva bhutepi gehe kshudhitah sa muddhah l

Kalpadrume satyapi vai daridrah gurvadiyoge api hi vah paramadi ll

 

One who is thirsty even though beside a full lake, is hungry in a well stocked house, is poor being next to an all giving tree and makes mistakes even having a guru is indeed an Idiot.

 

स बन्धुर्यो विपन्नानामापदुद्धरणक्षमः ।
न तु भीतपरित्राणवस्तूपालम्भ पण्डितः ॥ 
49

 

Sa bandhuryovipannanam apaduddharaṇakshamah l
Na tu bhītaparitranavastupalambha panditah 
ll

 

He is a friend of the afflicted who protects them from calamities and

not one who is an expert in condemning a thing ill done or omitted to be done.

 

अपमानं तथा लज्जा बन्धनं भयमेव च l

रोगशोकौ स्मृतेर्भङ्गो मृत्युश्चाष्टविधः स्मृतः ll 44

Apamanam tatha lajja bandhanam bhayameva cha l
Rogashokau smruterbhango mrutyushchashtavidhah smrutah ll


Insult, mortification, bondage, fear, ailment, sorrow and loss of memory, death

are considered to be eight forms of misfortunes.
