[अष्वत्थ] आचार्य एव कषमतां शान्तिर अत्र विधीयताम अभिषज्यमाने हि गुरौ तद्वृत्तं रॊषकारितम ।। ४-४६-१२ ।।

sanskrit

'Aswatthaman said, ‘O bull among men, your just observations need not be voiced before us. Yet the preceptor, filled with wrath, has spoken of Arjuna’s virtues. Even the virtues of an enemy should be acknowledged, while the faults of one’s own preceptor may be exposed. Thus, to the best of one’s ability, the merits of a son or disciple should be declared.’' ।। 4-46-12 ।।
