Verse 5.5.7

प्रज्ञावतां नयवतां धीराणां कुलशालिनाम् ।
जात्या राजससत्त्वानां मुख्यस्त्वं रघुनन्दन ॥ ७ ॥

prajñāvatāṃ nayavatāṃ dhīrāṇāṃ kulaśālinām |
jātyā rājasasattvānāṃ mukhyastvaṃ raghunandana || 7 ||

The intelligent polite, wise and noble men, are said to have the nature of rajasa-satvika (or the mixed nature of goodness and action) in them; and the best instance of such a nature is found, O Rama! in thy admirable disposition.
