Verse 7.215.11

बहुश्रुता ये प्रविचार्य सम्यक्प्रबोधितार्थे कथया जनाय ।
सन्तो वदिष्यन्ति पुनः शिशुत्वं न ते प्रयास्यन्ति किमन्यवाक्यैः ॥ ११ ॥

bahuśrutā ye pravicārya samyakprabodhitārthe kathayā janāya |
santo vadiṣyanti punaḥ śiśutvaṃ na te prayāsyanti kimanyavākyaiḥ || 11 ||

Having first received your instruction from the preceptor, you must weigh well and digest its meaning in yourself; and then communicate its sense, to the most sensible and intelligent student. This is said by sages and saints, as the trivium of science; know this and you need no more, to become wise when your boyhood is over.
