dāridryād dhriyam eti hrī-parigataḥ sattvāt paribhraśyate
niḥsattvaṃ paribhūyate paribhavān nirvedam āpadyate |
nirviṇṇaḥ śucam eti śoka-phihito buddhyā parityajyate
nirbuddhiḥ kṣayam ety aho nidhanatā sarvāpadām āspadam //

And further:
From poverty one falls into shame; seized by shame, he loses his courage;
One devoid of courage is despised; from humiliation, he falls into despair;
Despairing, he meets with sorrow; smothered by sorrow, he is abandoned by his intellect;
Lacking intellect, he goes to ruin. Ah, poverty is the seat of all calamities!
