3.117

牧杖信為急 調絃貴不奢
騰猨安可制 逸馬本難罝
驅馳習聲色 冠蓋競豪華
既入王孫第 還向季倫家
靜心澄業累 省念勗身瑕
庶茲憑七覺 持用免三邪

The herder's staff must truly be kept at hand; / In tuning strings, moderation is valued.
How can a leaping ape be subdued? / A runaway horse is naturally hard to snare.
Galloping about, indulging in sights and sounds; / Caps and carriages vie in opulence.
Once entering the prince's mansion, / They head back to Jilun's estate.
Calm the mind to clarify the burdens of karma; / Examine your thoughts to spur away bodily flaws.
May you rely on the seven factors of awakening, / And upholding them, escape the three evils.
