Kalidasa

Bhartrihari. The Century of Life

On Wealth

The Prayer to Mammon

Cast birth into the nether Hell; let all

The useless tribe of talents farther fall;

Throw virtue headlong from a rock and turn

High nobleness into the fire to burn;

The heroic heart let some swift thunder rive,

Our enemy that hinders us to live;

Wealth let us only keep; this one thing less,

All those become as weeds and emptiness.
