Selected Verses from the Dhammapada
Translated by P. Lal...Chapter: The Path...page 139




To-be-done discarded, not-to-be-done done-
the way of the wicked to increase his grief.
To-be-done observed, not-to-be-done discarded,
proper control practiced on the demands of the body-
the way of the thoughtful to end all impurity.
