Verse 5.36.41

जहि मानं महाकोपं कालुष्यं क्रूरतां तथा ।
न महान्तो निमज्जन्ति प्राकृते गुणसंकटे ॥ ४१ ॥

jahi mānaṃ mahākopaṃ kāluṣyaṃ krūratāṃ tathā |
na mahānto nimajjanti prākṛte guṇasaṃkaṭe || 41 ||

Forsake, O my soul! the pride and anger of thy mind, and all the foulness and wiliness of thy heart; because the high-minded never fall into the faults and errors of the common people.
