This pair of verses provides an answer to the question posed and left unanswered in Dhp 143.“Who in the world
is a man constrained by shame,
who awakens to censure
like a fine stallion to the whip?”
“Those restrained by shame
are rare—
those who go through life
always mindful.
Having reached the end
of suffering & stress,
they go among the discordant
harmoniously.”
