ईद्शानशिवान् घोरानाचारानिह जाजले । केवलाचरितत्वात् तु निपुणो नावबुद्धयसे,जाजले! इस तरहके अमंगलकारी और भयंकर आचार इस जगतमें बहुत-से प्रचलित हैं; केवल इसलिये कि अमुक कर्म पूर्वजोंद्वारा भी किया गया है, तुम चतुर होते हुए भी उसकी बुराईपर ध्यान नहीं देते
Translation
O Jājali! Sa mundong ito, maraming kaugaliang malaswa at nakapanghihilakbot ang umiiral. Ngunit dahil lamang sa “ginawa na rin ito ng mga ninuno,” ikaw—kahit matalino—ay hindi napapansin ang kasamaan nito.
