Punishment ⧸ Verse 145
Pipe-makers lead the water,
And fletchers carve the dart,
Carpenters carve the wood,
And good men tame themselves.
And fletchers carve the dart,
Carpenters carve the wood,
And good men tame themselves.
English translation by Albert Edmunds, from Hymns of the Faith (Dhammapada) (1902).
