Aśauca
दृष्ट्वा तु प्रोषितं तेन उच्छिष्टं न विसर्जयेत्॥ ब्राह्मणे नाप्यनुज्ञातः शीघ्रं संरम्भयेत् ततः॥
dṛṣṭvā tu proṣitaṃ tena ucchiṣṭaṃ na visarjayet || brāhmaṇe nāpyanujñātaḥ śīghraṃ saṃrambhayettataḥ
अगर ब्राह्मण चले गया हो तो भी जूठा मत फेंको। जब तक ब्राह्मण ने परमिशन नहीं दी, तब तक जल्दी मत करो।
