अमत्सरी भवति अनाग्रहीतः सो मुक्तत्यागो भवति अशोकप्राप्तो ।
न जीविकार्थं जनयति सो परेषां विघुष्टशब्दो भवति सदा प्रशस्तो ॥ ५१३ ॥

amatsarī bhavati anāgrahītaḥ so muktatyāgo bhavati aśokaprāpto |
na jīvikārthaṃ janayati so pareṣāṃ vighuṣṭaśabdo bhavati sadā praśasto || 513 ||

He is not miserly nor avaricious. He becomes freely generous and wins grieflessness. He does not induce others to live for profit. He becomes of good repute and is always praised. (513)
