Hitopdesh • Chapter 3 • Shloka 58
पश्य । आसन्नमेव नृपतिर्भजते मनुष्यं
विद्याविहीनमकुलीनमसंस्तुतं वा ।
प्रायेण भूमिपतयः प्रमदा लताश्च
यः पार्श्वतो वसति तं परिवेष्टयन्ति ॥
See - A king favours (or gets attached to) a man who is near him, whether he be illiterate, low-born or unworthy of association (or, not attached to his master). As a general rule, kings, young women and creepers cling to (lit. twine round) him who is near them.
