pūyaṃ cikitsakasyānnaṃ puṃścalyās tv annam indriyam
viṣṭhā vārdhuṣikasyānnaṃ śastravikrayiṇo malam //

The food of a physician (is as vile as) pus, that of an unchaste woman (equal to) semen, that of a usurer (as vile as) ordure, and that of a dealer in weapons (as bad as) dirt.

Georg Bühler 1886, The Laws of Manu
