[960] Whether by day or by night, one wise in royal duties, when bidden, should not waver: he may dwell in the royal court. Whether by day or by night, one wise in royal duties, accomplishing them all: he may dwell in the royal court. And whatever road has been well made, well prepared for the king, even when invited he should not go along it: he may dwell in the royal court.
