15.11
"Good-Striker did not say:
'Form, color, and lineage,
Possessing great power and superior besides;
Good-Tooth cannot be good.'
If one accepts unprofitable words
And believes others' divisive speech,
Those of close affection will naturally break apart
And then become sworn enemies.
If one has known the truth,
One should eliminate anger and distress.
Now we can speak with utter sincerity,
Causing our bodies to obtain benefit.
Now we should thoroughly subdue
And destroy this evil companion;
We can kill this jackal
Who set us at odds!"
Thereupon he struck the jackal dead.
