இலன் என்று தீயவை செய்யற்க செய்யின்
இலனாகும் மற்றும் பெயர்த்து. (31)

When once a person commits evil, there is no escape at all; it will pursue him till he meets the consequent destruction like his shadow which follows him wherever he goes.

தீயவை செய்தார் கெடுதல் நிழல் தன்னை
வீயாது அடியுறைந் தற்று (32)

It must therefore be understood that if a man wants to lead a peaceful and pleasant life, he must never make himself an object of the onslaught of misfortunes caused by doing evil to others.
