मणिलुण्ठति पादाग्रे काचः शिरसि धार्यते । क्रयविक्रयवेलायां काचः काचो मणिर्मणिः ॥९॥

sanskrit

If a man does not have discernment, he keeps precious gems lying in the dust of his feet and also keeps glass on his head, but at the time of buying and selling, glass gets the price of glass and the gem gets the price of gem.
