Verse 6.92.36

अग्नये महते वापि दातव्यं साधु यद्भवेत् ।
मूर्खस्येव मतिर्गुप्ते नित्यमेव पतस्यधः ॥ ३६ ॥

agnaye mahate vāpi dātavyaṃ sādhu yadbhavet |
mūrkhasyeva matirgupte nityameva patasyadhaḥ || 36 ||

Because all good things are to be given to the good or to the fire; but all bad things are cast off, like the dust of the earth; and as foolish men fall to the ground, by their secret craft.
