Akkodhanaṃ vatavantaṃ,
sīlavantaṃ anussadaṃ;
Dantaṃ antimasārīraṃ,
tamahaṃ brūmi brāhmaṇaṃ.

Him I call indeed a Brâhmana who is free from anger, dutiful, virtuous, without appetite, who is subdued, and has received his last body.
[396. From verse 396 to the first half of verse 423, the text of the Dhammapada agrees with the text of the Vasishtha-Bharadvâgasûtra. These verses are translated by D'Alwis in his Nirvâna, pp. 113-118, and again by Fausböll, Suttanipâta, v. 620 seq.
The text contains puns on kiñkana, which means 'wealth,' but also 'attachment;' cf. Childers, s.v.
