Verse 31

³¹He was good to brahmins, well behaved, true to his word, his senses conquered; and like the self of all beings, he alone was the dearest friend they had. ³²He bowed at the feet of his betters like a servant, was tender to the poor like a father, warm to his equals like a brother, and looked on his teachers as the Lord himself. Rich in learning, in wealth, in beauty and in birth, he was without the stiffness of pride. ³³His mind was not shaken in troubles; he did not long for the qualities of things heard of or seen, taking them for nothing real; senses, breaths, body and thought were always in hand; his desire was quieted. A demon, he had nothing of the demon in him.

³⁴The great qualities that the wise keep noting in him, king, are not covered over even now, any more than they are in the Bhagavan, the Lord. ³⁵In the assembly where good men's stories are told, even the gods, his enemies, make him the standard, king; how much more others like you. ³⁶Enough of his countless qualities. His greatness is shown by this alone: that his delight in Vasudeva, the Bhagavan, was his own nature.
