Sri Aurobindo

Translations

CWSA.- Volume 5

Part One. Translations from Sanskrit
Section Four. Bhartrihari. The Century of Life

On Fools and Folly

The Middle Sort

Easily shalt thou the ignorant appease;

The wise more easily is satisfied;

But one who builds his raw and foolish pride

On a little lore not God himself can please.
