Shatakatraya 1.41

1.41

yasyāsti vittaṃ sa naraḥ kulīnaḥ
sa paṇḍitaḥ sa śrutavān guṇajñaḥ |
sa eva vaktā sa ca darśanīyaḥ
sarve guṇāḥ kāñcanam āśrayanti ||

He who possesses wealth is a man of noble birth; / he is a wise man; he is learned, an appreciator of virtues; / he alone is an orator, and he is handsome: / all virtues take refuge in gold.
