Analysis of Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Admonition 09
Sa di 1210 (Shiraz) – 1291 (Shiraz)
Do not pity the weakness of a foe because when he gains strength he will not spare thee.
Boast not of thy moustaches when thou seest thy foe is weak.
There is marrow in every bone, a man in every coat.
