19.13

'Flogging the good and virtuous, / falsely slandering the innocent— / the calamity is tenfold, / disaster swift and unforgiving: / during life, one suffers bitter pain, / one's physical body is mutilated and broken, / afflictions and diseases arise spontaneously, / one loses one's mind in confusion, / becoming an object of ridicule to others; / or official distress befalls, / property is completely exhausted, / relatives are separated, / and whatever dwellings one has / are consumed and burned by disastrous fire; / after death, one enters hell. / Such are the ten.'
