## Chapter Twenty-One
[Praise of the Noble]
Those whose virtues, like the white lotus, the cluster of Kunda flowers, the moon, and camphor, cleanse the minds of the seekers and spread purity, those who have made their own interests secondary and the welfare of others primary, may such noble souls be pleased with me; what do I care for the extremely wicked, who are completely unrestrained? ||1||
**Meaning:** Those whose radiant virtues, like the white lotus, the cluster of Kunda flowers, the moon, and camphor, cleanse the minds of the seekers and spread purity, those who have made their own interests secondary and the welfare of others primary, may such noble souls be pleased with me; what do I care for the extremely wicked, who are completely unrestrained? ||1||
The noble ones, with their waves of grace and beauty, enhance the meaning of the scriptures and spread the fame of the poet. Like the beautiful honey-sweet blossoms of the Madhuka tree, they spread their fragrance. The male cuckoos, with their five wondrous qualities, proclaim their good fortune. ||2||
