勸發菩提心集 2.97

2.97

For a master looking after male and female servants there are also five things: first, provide food, clothing, and bedding in a timely manner; second, when they are sick and emaciated, summon a doctor to treat them; third, do not flog or beat them arbitrarily; fourth, do not seize their private property; fifth, distribute goods equitably. For male and female servants serving their master there are also five things: first, rise early on one's own without waiting for the master to call; second, apply one's mind diligently to what ought to be done; third, take care of the master's property and do not discard it or give it away to beggars; fourth, escort and welcome the master when he leaves and enters; fifth, afterwards praise the master's virtues and do not speak of his faults.
