A Kshatriya shorn of courage, a Brahmana who takes every sort of food, a Vaishya shorn of exertion, a Shudra who is idle, learned person without good conduct, one of high birth but shorn of righteous conduct, a Brahmana fallen away from truth, a woman who is unchastc and wicked, a Yogin endued with attachments, one that cooks food for his own self, an ignorant person employed in making a discourse, a kingdom without a king, and king who cherishes no love for his subjects and who is shorn of Yoga,-these all, O king, are deserving of pity.
भीरू राजन्यो ब्राह्मणः सर्वभक्ष्यो वैश्योऽनीहावान् हीनवर्णोऽलसञ्च। विद्वांश्चाशीलो वृत्तहीनः कुलीन: सत्याद् विभ्रष्टो धार्मिकः स्त्री च दुष्टा॥ मूर्यो वक्ता नृपहीनं च राष्ट्रम्। एते सर्वे शोच्यतां यान्ति राजन् यश्चायुक्तः स्नेहहीनः प्रजासु॥
