89. Though a man is learned, but if he is by nature bad, avoid 

 him. Though a venomous serpent has a gem on his head, what 

 wise man would take him into his bosom ? 



90. By arrogance, good qualities are diminished ; by lust modes- 

 ty is obfuscated. By a continual railing at his servants, the master 

 loses his authority. 



91. It is a rare thing to find one who can give good advice, but 

 it is more rare to find one who would listen (to advice) — difficult 

 it is to find an expert physician, few are they that would act ac- 

 cording to his advice. 



92. Judge not before you have examined. It often happens that 

 an upright man, if he loses his cause, is thought to be a knave. He 

 that acts with discretion, has many enemies.
