Analysis of Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Admonition 01
Sa di 1210 (Shiraz) – 1291 (Shiraz)
The amity of princes and the sweet voice of children are not to be trusted, because the former is changed by fancy and the latter in the course of one night.
Give not thy heart to a sweetheart of a thousand lovers,
And if thou givest it, thou givest that heart for separation.
