मितं ददाति हि पिता मितं भ्राता मितं सुतः । अमितस्य हि दातारं भर्त्तारं पूजये त्सदा
mitaṃ dadāti hi pitā mitaṃ bhrātā mitaṃ sutaḥ | amitasya hi dātāraṃ bharttāraṃ pūjaye tsadā
الأب لا يعطي إلا بقدر، والأخ لا يعطي إلا بقدر، والابن لا يعطي إلا بقدر. أمّا الزوج فهو معطي ما لا حدّ له؛ فلذلك ينبغي لها أن تكرّمه دائمًا.
