Alaṅkato ce pi samaṃ careyya
Santo danto niyato brahma-cārī
Sabbesu bhūtesu nidhāya daṇḍaṃ
So brāhmaṇo so samaṇo sa bhikkhu.

He who, though dressed in fine apparel, exercises tranquillity, is quiet, subdued, restrained, chaste, and has ceased to find fault with all other beings, he indeed is a Brâhmana, an ascetic (sramana), a friar (bhikshu).

Friedrich Max Müller 1881, The Dhammapada (Sacred Books of the East 10.1)
