One who drinks wine, one who hates others, one who is angry, one who is merciless, one who feels pain on seeing other's happiness, one who injures friends, one who always kills living creatures, one who is ungrateful, one who is vile, should be shunned. Friendship should never be contracted with any of them. Likewise, no friendship should be made with him who is always busy with seeing the faults of others. Listen now to me as I mention the persons, with whom friendship may be contracted.
पानपो द्वेषणः क्रोधी निघृणः परुषस्तथा। परोपतापी मित्रध्रुक् तथा प्राणिवधे रतः॥ कृतघ्नश्चाधमो लोके न संधेयः कदाचन। छिद्रान्वेषी ह्यसंधेयः संधेयानपि मे शृणु॥
