Evaṃ bho purisa jānāhi,
pāpadhammā asaññatā;
Mā taṃ lobho adhammo ca,
ciraṃ dukkhāya randhayuṃ.
O man, know this, that the unrestrained are in a bad state; take care that greediness and vice do not bring thee to grief for a long time!
[244. Pakkhandin is identified by Dr. Fausböll with praskandin, one who jumps forward, insults, or, as Buddhaghosa explains it, one who meddles with other people's business, an interloper. At all events, it is a term of reproach, and, as it would seem, of theological reproach.
