-00 ( with the caesura after the eighth syllable ): 13b Cadences ( syllables 8-11/12 ): all the Triştubh pādas have the cadence •v-v ( with
shortening m. c. in 3d* ).
both Jagati pädas have the cadence *v-vThis analysis shows that although lengthening and shortening of syllables m. c. took place consistently in the openings and cadences, the necessary changes to produce the standard breaks -vv and ov- were not always made. V, Translation
1. One should not waste ( one's ) life (although it is ) imperfect; assuredly there is no protection for one brought close to old age. Thus know : people are careless; what will the unrestrained get by violence ?
2. Those men who acquire wealth by evil actions, practising folly, will go to hell, leaving their wealth ) behind, bound by their hatred ( like ) a man enveloped in snares.
3. As a thief, an evil-doer, caught in a hole in a wall, is destroyed by his own action, so people are destroyed ) when they pass away and also ) here in (this ) world. There is no release from actions which have been ) performed.
4. Whatever action one who has arrived in the sumsāra does for another or in common (for both of them ), at the time of experiencing the result of) that action they do not ( both ) go to the place of punishment as relations.
5. A careless man would not obtain protection by wealth in this world or in the next; like one who has lost his lamp in endless darkness, ( although ) having seen the right path he is as though not having seen it.
6. And although with wakened soul among sleepers, a wise man with quick intelligence should not be confident Times are hard; the body is weak. He should remain vigilant like a Bhärunda bird.
7. He should continue to mistrust his footsteps, thinking that whatever is here is a snare. Promoting life until the acquisition of release ), afterwards (abandoning it ) after careful consideration, he abolishes impurity.
8. By suppressing desire one goes to release, like a horse carrying armour (when it is) trained. One should be vigilant in the early years; on that account a sage goes quickly to release.
9. (If ) he (did not obtain it) early on, similarly he would not obtain it afterwards; that illustration (that one can obtain it later on) belongs to those who preach (that life is) eternal. One despairs, being slack in respect of life, brought close to death at the dissolution of the body.
