Dhammapada 320

Language
Pāli

320

Ahaṃ nāgova saṅgāme,
cāpato patitaṃ saraṃ;
Ativākyaṃ titikkhissaṃ,
dussīlo hi bahujjano.

Silently shall I endure abuse as the elephant in battle endures the arrow sent from the bow: for the world is ill-natured.

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