वचोवक्रेक्षणद्वारैर्धीमतामाशया मिथः ।
एकीभवन्ति सरितां पयांसि वलनैरिव ॥ ३० ॥

vacovakrekṣaṇadvārairdhīmatāmāśayā mithaḥ |
ekībhavanti saritāṃ payāṃsi valanairiva || 30 ||

The words, the face and eyes, are expressive of the inward thoughts of the wise, and these go together like the salt and water of the sea (which are inseparable from one another. So Chanakya).—[Sanskrit: manasyekam vacasyekam karmanyekam mahatmanam | manasyanyat vacasyanat karmanyanyat dusatmanam ||] The mind, the word and act of the wise all agree. But those of fools disagree in all the three.
