THE KURAL
436. If the prince correcteth his own faults and then looketh into those of others, where is the ill that can approach him?
437. Behold the miser that spendeth not where he ought to spend : his wealth will come to an inglorious wreck.
438. Close-fisted parsimony is not a vice to be classed with other vices : it formeth a class apart.
439. Exult not at anything at any time : embark not on enterprises that would bring thee no good.
440. If thou canst keep from the knowledge of others the things in which thy heart taketh delight, the machinations of thy foes will be in vain.
