12 Also not sacrifice [agnihotra], Veda-reading,
and so forth.
13 Not processions to sacred places.
14 Also not service of a king.
15 Nor service of women.
16 He should not drink intoxicants.
17 Nor slay a Brâhman.
18 Nor practise theft.
19 Nor much indulge in garlands and unguents.
20 He should not be dejected.
21 Nor over-wrathful.
22 What is called non-giving is greed on a wrong
occasion.
23 In a (true) field he should have seed sown.
24 Giving should be practised.
25 Aversion therefrom is greed.
26 Theft is also greed.
27 Pleasure is a cause of expenditure of means.
28 A will to hurt gurus, gods, wise men, kings,
and so forth is anger,
29 And it is a smiting of one's own head.
30 An enemy equal in forces and so forth he
should slay in war;
31 Other adversaries [or If attacking others,
then] by conciliation, gifts, dissension, pretended
ignoring, and so on.
32 He should not have sordid dress.
22 Text and translation uncertain. More intelligible
would be avishaye dānam... ‘giving on a wrong occasion is
called non-giving.’
31 I translate anyābhiyodhinaḥ.
32 Sc. he should never be in deshabille.
