    This verse consists of two related sentences. They are:
    1) yassa cetaj samucchinnaj mulaghaccaj samuhataj (and who has cut off, removed and destroyed by the rot such thinking). The subject is the pronoun etaj (this, nominative singular). It has an attribute, the relative pronoun yassa (for whom, genitive singular). The verb is omitted, implying the verb "to be". It has three attributes, the adjectives samucchinnaj (cut off, nominative singular), mulaghaccaj (destroyed by the root, nominative singular) and samuhataj (removed, nominative singular). The conjunction ca (and) serves mainly for metrical purposes.
    2) sa vantadoso medhavi sadhurupo ti vuccati (he, the wise one who has discarded hatred, is called "respectable"). There are two subjects in this sentence, the pronoun sa (he, nominative singular) and the adjective medhavi (wise one, nominative singular). This word has an attribute, the compound vantadoso (who has discarded hatred, nominative singular). The verb is vuccati (is called, 3^rd person, singular, passive, indicative, present tense). The object is the adjective sadhurupo (respectable, nominative singular). It is modified by the particle ti (quotation marks).

    The story for this verse is identical with the one for the previous verse (DhP 262).
    One, who wants to be respected, should discard all the impurities and clean one's mind. It is not possible to be envious, hating and selfish and expect others to respect us. To try to hide it away under the mask of nice words and smiling face maybe can fool somebody, but only for a short while. Then everybody will see the true face and their respect for us will quickly evaporate.
