Forgiveness is a virtue of the learned

नरस्याभरणं रूपम्
रूपस्याभरणं गुणः ।
गुणस्याभरणं ज्ञानम्
ज्ञानस्याभरणं क्षमा ॥

Beauty decorates the personality of a man.
Good qualities ornament his beauty.
Knowledge embellishes his qualities.
Forgiveness adorns his knowledge.


Forgiveness is a virtue of the learned.
To err is human, to forgive divine.
