Valmiki Ramayana 4.22.22

4.22.22

māsyāmitrair gataṃ gaccher mā śatrubhir ariṃdama
bhartur arthaparo dāntaḥ sugrīvavaśago bhava

'Let time and place thy thoughts employ:
In woe be strong, he meek in joy.
Accept both pain and pleasure, still
Obedient to Sugríva's will.
Thou hast, my darling, from the first
With tender care been softly nursed;
But harder days, if thou wouldst win
Sugríva's love, must now begin.
To those who hate him ne'er incline,
Nor count his foe a friend of thine.
In all thy thoughts his welfare seek,
Obedient, lowly, faithful, meek.
Let no rash suit his bosom pain,
Nor yet from due requsts abstain.
Each is a grievous fault, between
The two is round the happy mean.'
