128.1.27

samaṇaṃ saṃjayaṃ dantaṃ | haṇejjā koi katthaī /
natthi jīvassa nāsu tti | evaṃ pehejja saṃjae ||27||

A monk should not be angry if beaten, nor should he therefore entertain sinful thoughts; knowing patience to be the highest good, a monk should meditate on the Law. (26)
If somebody strikes a restrained, resigned Sramana somewhere, he should think: 'I have not lost my life.' (27)

Hermann Jacobi 1895, Uttarâdhyayana Sûtra (Gaina Sûtras II, SBE 45)
