1. You will not find reward in giving unjustly,
There is no virtue in withholding from the deserving.

2. True generosity is to give freely to those
Who deserve your gift and merit favor.

3. If what you give is of value to the recipient,
Then the loss of it should not grieve you.

4. All that comes will go, without doubt, and the ignorant
Will know nothing but grief, anxiety and woe.
