14.98

"An evil mouth causes much offence; / In hell one is burned and scorched. / Among humans there is residual retribution: / In return one hears words like knives and swords. / Even if one engages in discussion, / One falls into dispute and is resented by others. / Accept past retribution with a willing heart; / Reform evil, and goodness will naturally shine."
