उग्रो राजा मन्यमानो ब्राह्मणं यो जिघत्सति । परा तत् सिच्यते राष्ट्रं ब्राह्मणो यत्र जीयते ॥६॥
ugro rājā manyamāno brāhmaṇaṃ yo jighatsati | parā tat sicyate rāṣṭraṃ brāhmaṇo yatra jīyate ||6||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
A king who thinks himself formidable, [and] who desires to devour a Brahman—that kingdom is poured away, where a Brahman is scathed (jyā).
