Sanskrit Text

चारित्रनियता राजन्ये कृशाः कृशवृत्तयः अर्थिनश्चोपगच्छन्ति तेषु दत्तं महाफलम्

English Translation

By making gifts to those Brahmanas who are always of pure conduct, О king, who are liberated by abstaining from all luxuries and even full meals who are given to the observance of such vows as lead to the emaciation of the body, and who approach givers with the object of getting gifts, one acquires great merit.
