One should never be in bed when the sun is up. If one fails any day to be up with the sun, he should then perform an expiation. Rising from bed, one should first salute his parents, and preceptors, or other elders worthy of respect. By so doing one acquires a long life. The toothstick should be thrown off when done with, and a new one should be used every day.
न चाभ्युदितशायी स्यात् प्रायश्चित्ती तथा भवेत्। मातापितरमुत्थाय पूर्वमेवाभिवादयेत्॥ आचार्यमथवाप्यन्यं तथायुर्विन्दते महत्। वर्जयेद् दन्तकाष्ठानि वर्जनीयानि नित्यशः॥
