64.14

Pleasure stems from heedlessness; / Suffering brings sorrow to oneself.
Glorious rank, favor, and disgrace / Are precarious as floating clouds.
Fond of fishing and hunting, loving to kill, / One violates compassion and harms one's spirit.
Retribution returns along the path of enmity; / How can such agonizing pain be endured?
