आपद्यपि न मुञ्चन्ति शशिवच्छीततामिव ।
प्रकृत्यैव विराजन्ते मैत्र्यादिगुणकान्तया ॥ ५ ॥

āpadyapi na muñcanti śaśivacchītatāmiva |
prakṛtyaiva virājante maitryādiguṇakāntayā || 5 ||

He never forsakes his mildness, even when he is in trouble;but remains as cool as the moon even in her eclipse. He shines with the lovely virtue of fellow-feeling to all.
