BOOK OF WISE SAYINGS.
1.
The enemies which rise within the body, hard to be overcome—thy evil passions—should manfully be fought: he who conquers these is equal to the conquerors of worlds.
Bhāravi.
2.
If passion gaineth the mastery over reason, the wise will not count thee amongst men.
Firdausī.
3.
Knowledge is destroyed by associating with the base; with equals equality is gained, and with the distinguished, distinction.
