A Crow
“Dasahi, bhikkhave, asaddhammehi samannāgato kāko.
“Mendicants, a crow has ten bad qualities.
Katamehi dasahi?
What ten?
Dhaṁsī ca, pagabbho ca, tintiṇo ca, mahagghaso ca, luddo ca, akāruṇiko ca, dubbalo ca, oravitā ca, muṭṭhassati ca, necayiko ca—
They’re rude and impudent, gluttonous and voracious, cruel and pitiless, weak and raucous, unmindful and acquisitive.
imehi kho, bhikkhave, dasahi asaddhammehi samannāgato kāko.
A crow has these ten bad qualities.
Evamevaṁ kho, bhikkhave, dasahi asaddhammehi samannāgato pāpabhikkhu.
In the same way, a bad mendicant has these ten bad qualities.
