Verse 103.30
स पात्रपाणी विचरेया अमूगो मूग्संमतो ।
तं तं दानं न निंदेया दातारं नावजानिया ॥ ३० ॥
sa pātrapāṇī vicareyā amūgo mūgsaṃmato |
taṃ taṃ dānaṃ na niṃdeyā dātāraṃ nāvajāniyā || 30 ||
He will wander alone with his bowl in his hand, not dumb, though he seem to be so. He will not scorn a gift whatever it is, nor slight the giver. (30)
