Psalms of the Brethren LXXVI: Piyanjaha
Translated by Mrs. C. A. F. Rhys Davids (1913) · From Psalms of the Early Buddhists II: Psalms of the Brethren (1913)
Religion
Where men are arrogant, see thou lie low.
Where they are low in mind, lift up the heart.
Dwell thou where other folk care not to dwell,
Wherein men find delight, take thou no joy.
