176. Ane at disna conseeder the neist warld, an transgresses wi juist ane thing — speakin faus — there’s nae ill they winna dae.

177. The meesurly dinna gang tae heiven, an the fuilish dinna praise giein. But the wyce enjoy giein, an sae are happy in the neist warld.

167. Dinna embrace laich weys. Dinna keep thrang wi unheedfuness. Dinna be thirlt tae wrang views. Dinna cleek tae the warld.

168. Upget yersel an dinna be heedless. Bide bi the teachins o the Buddha an be o guid conduct. Onyane at bides bi the teachins o the Buddha dwalls weel, baith in this warld an the neist.
