The Twin-Verses ⧸ Verse 8
One who foulness contemplates,
whose faculties are well-restrained,
in food does moderation know,
is full of faith, who’s diligent:
that one no Màra overthrows,
as wind does not a rocky mount.
whose faculties are well-restrained,
in food does moderation know,

that one no Màra overthrows,
