सर्वशत्रुषु मध्यस्थो दयादाक्षिण्यसंयुतः ।
प्राप्तकर्मकरोऽग्र्याणां संसारे नावसीदति ॥ ६ ॥

sarvaśatruṣu madhyastho dayādākṣiṇyasaṃyutaḥ |
prāptakarmakaro'gryāṇāṃ saṃsāre nāvasīdati || 6 ||

Whose generosity and manliness do not forsake him, even when he is beset by his bitterest enemies; and who is observant of his duties to his superiors, such a man is not crest-fallen in this world.
