THE KURAL
426. It is a part of wisdom to conform to the ways of the world.
427. The man of understanding knoweth what is coming : but the fool foreseeth not what is before.
428. It is folly to rush headlong into danger : it is the part of the wise to fear what ought to be feared.
429. Behold the man of foresight who is armed for every contingency: he will never know the blow that causeth trembling.
430. He that hath understanding hath everything: but the fool though he possess everything hath nothing.
