५७ वसणावडिओ वि नरो, मच्चुमुहदसणविवरपत्तो वि ।
पुन्नापुन्नाण फल, पावइ अइरेण सव्वो वि ।। (८.६६) 57. Every person, even at the time when he is overtaken by adversity and has fallen into the mouth of death, full of teeth, gets soon the fruits of his own merit or demerit. (8. 66).
विहि (Fate) ५८ अबह परिचितिज्जइ, सहरिसकंदुज्जुएण हियएण ।
___परिणमइ अन्नह च्चिय, कज्जारंभो विहिवसेण ।। (६.६६) (७.३) 58. The beginning of any activity, which might have been thought of in a particular manner by one with a heart impelled by enthusiasm, results in a different manner due to Destiny. (6. 66) and (7.3).
सज्जण (Good Man) ५९ चइ दोससमूह, विरल पिय गुणलव पि गिण्हति ।
सुयणा सहावउ च्चिय, परदोसपरम्मुहा जेण ।। ६. सुयणो न रूसइच्चिय, अह रूसइ मंगुल'न चिंतेइ ।
अह चितेइ न जंपइ, अह जंपइ लज्जिओ होइ ।। ६१ अलमेत्थ वित्थरेण', पज्जत सज्जणेहिं सव्व पि ।
___ जेण गुणगिण्हणरया, वेरीण वि नियसहावाउ ।। (११.१८-२०) 59. Leaving aside vices, the good men receive even a modicum of virtue, though rare, because they are, by nature, averse to the vices in others.
60. A good man does not get angry; if he gets angry, he does not think ill (of others): if he thinks ill, he does not speak (about it); and if (at all) he speaks, he feels ashamed of it.
61. Enough of prolixity here. Everything (that is there) has been obtained by good men, because they are, by nature, intent on acquiring virtues even from the enemies. (1. 18, 19, 20).

कि पुण सहोयरो वच्छलो य जेठो पियातुल्लो ।। ६३ सुयणस्स विहलियस्स वि, पुणो वि सुयणेण हो[] उद्धरण ।
पंकपु(प)डिय गइदं, को कढइ वरगय मोतु ?।। (५.२ १३-२९४) 62. It is not good for good men to leave aside the other person in adversity. Then, what to talk of that person who is his own brother, loving, elderly and fatherlike?
63. A helpless good man can be uplifted by a good man only. Excepting a more powerful elephant who is able to drag out a powerful elephant that has stuck to the mud ? (5. 293, 294),
