Make haste in doing good, restrain your mind from evil. Whosoever is
slow in doing good, his mind delights in evil. |

As from a heap of flowers many a garland is made even so many good
deeds should be done by one born a mortal. |

Do not think lightly of good, saying: It will not come to me. Even as
a water-pot is filled by the falling of drops, so the wise man,
gathering it drop by drop, fills himself with good. |

| 4. |
Be tolerant among the intolerant, gentle among the violent, and free
from greed among the greedy. |
|

| 5. |
Not to do any evil, to cultivate good, to purity one's mind, this is
the teaching of the Buddhas. |
