18.p5

striyai guhyaṃ na nivedanīyam; bhaviṣyacintā na kāryā; vairiṇām api hitam eva cintanīyam; dānādhyayanādi vinā divasaṃ vandhyaṃ na kuryāt; pitroḥ sevā kāryā; coraiḥ saha saṃbhāṣaṇaṃ na kāryam; sarvadā niṣṭhuram uttaraṃ na vaktavyam; alpanimittaṃ bahu na hāraṇīyam. uktaṃ ca:

Tell no secrets to women; have no worries about the future; think only pleasantly even of your enemies; let no day be wasted, without alms or study or the like; honor your parents; do not converse with thieves; never return a harsh answer. Do not put great things in hazard for the sake of small ones. And it is said:

Franklin Edgerton 1926, Vikrama's Adventures, or The Thirty-two Tales of the Throne
